[QUOTE="Don Kondra, post: 310561, member: 17688"] To recap, my first and only sighting and capture of an oriole was in 2009, sigh... [IMG]http://i249.photobucket.com/albums/gg202/donkondra/Newvisitor.jpg[/IMG] Then this little beauty showed up four days ago [IMG]http://thephotoforum.com/forum/images/smilies/heartpump.gif[/IMG] [IMG]http://i249.photobucket.com/albums/gg202/donkondra/Oriolethree_zps2315415e.jpg[/IMG] I was concerned they would continue on their way before I could get set up with some grape jelly but yesterday morning I was up at 6:30 and had barely sat down on the couch when this specimen arrived. It spent the better part of five minutes sipping from the feeder and then had a little snack of suet... [IMG]http://i249.photobucket.com/albums/gg202/donkondra/Oriolefour_zpsdc5c91dc.jpg[/IMG] It was later in the day before I could find the time to wire an 8' length of poplar branch to the pipe that holds up my hummingbird feeder and cut a jelly container out of an old pill bottle. Within an hour I had a visitor. They really do like their grape jelly [IMG]http://thephotoforum.com/forum/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif[/IMG] [IMG]http://i249.photobucket.com/albums/gg202/donkondra/Orioleeating_zpsd0678721.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i249.photobucket.com/albums/gg202/donkondra/Oriolefive_zpsf50939f9.jpg[/IMG] It has been four days at this point so I am optimistic they will stay awhile !
