This is the first time I have gotten a good photo of a Baltimore Oriole. I spotted these on a Mulberry tree at the Sequoyah National Wildlife Refuge in Oklahoma.

Wonderful!!!
Nice photos…
Thank you both!
Wow, these are outstanding images, Steve! So very lovely against the lush green leaves and colorful mulberries.
Thank you so much Julie!
Steve! This looks just like a John Audubon lithograph! Wow! Beautiful! These birds should start appearing in NW Wisconsin in a week or so. My Hummers are back as of Sunday.

Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful. The colors you captured are Really BEAUTEEEEEEFUL!
Thank you both! I have been trying for years to get a photo of these birds and now that I know where this Mulberry tree is I plan on getting more in the future.
Great photos Steve!
Love this photo series Steve. Anxiously awaiting the arrival of Bullock’s Orioles here, but they’re late. Have the grape jelly feeders and the oriole feeders out, but nobody’s at the buffet but the House Finches. Trying to be patient.
Thanks Scott and Linda I hope they arrive soon for you.
Excellent! Still waiting on their arrival at my house – oranges and mealworms stand ready!!
Brilliant! Absolutely gorgeous! The colors just yell at you. They certainly love those Mulberrys.
Perfection Steve!
Gorgeous series Steve. Beautiful bird, beautiful colours!
That guy is having a feast. Only one Oriole in ten years here in Southern California (my neck of the woods). With your readers’ food tips, maybe I can lure a couple to come by. Super pics as always.
Thanks everyone!

Whoa! These are really wonderful photos, Steve!! They are such beautiful birds and contrasted against the colorful sky, leaves, and mulberries is a feast for the eyes
Thanks Raj and Cindy!
These birds are eating my hummingbird food. What can I put out for them? These pics are beautiful.
Tina,
They love orange halves and grape jelly. They do make a special feeder for them that looks like a Hummingbird feeder.
I’m glad you enjoy my photos.
