Melissa1st sighting of a black and orange and white Baltimore Oriole in ages! Seen through dirty window, under overgrown boxwood, eating birdseed (hawk-free zone).
Russ@mtechman we saw one here (eastern North Carolina) a few days ago! Singing sporadically. We were very excited! 💚
@fitzbew248 I hope I see him again! I wonder if they like rivers? I should go to the river mid-day on a week day.
Steven Hoefer@mtechman They are so pretty and (in my experience) so shy! Though grape jelly or half an orange really does bring them around.
@troublewithwords I can't believe I forgot about these treats! The grape jelly trick makes them sound like cousins of hummingbirds...
