This bird was photographed last week near Angleton, Texas, USA. Trying to decide whether the bird is a Bullock's or Baltimore Oriole. Thanks for any help.

The only one that seems to be likely is Baltimore oriole, and that's what this looks like (dull brownish rear of head).
It helps people to help you if you post the actual photo, not a photo of a screen.
 
Dappling on the mantle might suggest Baltimore over Bullocks, also perhaps more likely the former on range.

Cheers
