I think they're on their way out (Icterus galbula)

Baltimore Oriole
They've been feeding up a storm so I'm assuming they are getting ready for some migration

Their preferred habitat is open deciduous woodlands. Baltimore orioles also do quite well in community parks and suburban backyards. They forage in the treetops and commonly build nests in American elms, cottonwoods, and maples.

March, 2022

Icterus galbula

Nikon D90, SIGMA 80-400/4.5-5.6 DG OS. plus a 1+1/4 extender, hand held.
