  1. Sunbeam on Wood

    The whole color palette brightens whenever the Baltimore orioles (Icterus galbula) are in town.

  2. Quiet Firebird

    This is the third image of a Baltimore Oriole I’ve posted in a week. They’re such striking birds, and their spring stopover here is brief—sometimes they don’t pause at all—so I make the most of every encounter.

  3. No‑Nonsense Oriole

    I was spotted by this rather stern‑looking Baltimore Oriole (Icterus galbula). He seemed distinctly unimpressed with the bird feed I’d put out. A few minutes after taking the photo, I peeled an orange and set out the slices, which quickly attracted a few other orioles.

  4. Firebird in the Green

    I spotted this migrant passing through—a vivid Baltimore Oriole (Icterus galbula). I put out pieces of the only orange I had, hoping to coax more of them in. It was a mandarin, so it didn’t last long, and I never saw who actually carried off the pieces.

    With no more oranges left, I cut up an apple and set that out instead. That plan didn’t work either. Judging by the scene this morning, a raccoon probably made off with the apple slices during the night.

  5. Oriole in Amber

    This Baltimore Oriole (Icterus galbula) visited a few springs ago, part of a small group that lingered for a week or two. I set out orange halves to welcome them, and they took to the offering with enthusiasm. They were also drawn to the suet feeder, adding bright flashes of color and song to the yard during their brief stay.

  6. Flame Among the Leaves

    This Baltimore Oriole (Icterus galbula) has a slender strand of fiber clinging to the tip of his beak, along with faint specks of debris scattered across his black head. The fiber might be from the orange I set out for them—a small trace of his recent visit.

  8. Bright Visitor in the Canopy

    This bird dropped in briefly this morning while Charlie and I were outside, sipping coffee and watching the feeder drama unfold. I believe it’s a juvenile Baltimore Oriole (Icterus galbula), though it could also be an Orchard Oriole (Icterus spurius). Honestly, I’m hoping for the latter—I don’t have a photo of one yet. But Merlin lists Baltimore as its first choice and Orchard as a close second. Copilot agrees: the evidence leans toward Baltimore.

  9. The Orange Glance

    When the Baltimore Orioles (Icterus galbula) were passing through a few years ago, several would drop by this little swing feeder. A friend on Mastodon suggested I try offering half an orange—and sure enough, it worked. I placed a sliced orange on the feeder and ended up with some pretty cool shots. This was the first one I captured.
