Great shots Brian. Our Orioles just arrived a day ago and I just put out my orange and grape jelly. I haven't had a chance to take pictures yet. Sadly our Orioles only stop by for a few weeks, then they are off to someplace that is imprinted in them for breeding. Sure would love to watch a little Oriole family grow up, but it doesn't seem to happen. Love this ...
