"Yellow" Warbler ?Andy might be on to something
Isn't it more likely something like a female Warbler?
Edit: Juv Tennessee Warbler?

Unfortunately, no other photos, and the photographer's memory is far away (2012).Does the friend have the possibility of providing additional photos whatever their quality?

The guide had said at the time "Baltimore Oriole" !?!
What I don't believe.

Based on this photo alone.... I'd tend to agree with the warbler suggestion and perhaps even the Tenn warbler suggestion.
But perhaps it's telling that the guide said Baltimore Oriole. Unless incompetent or really not bothering, it would be difficult to mistake an oriole for a warbler when you're actually looking at the bird (trying to judge a single photo is another matter)
This is reported in the HBW.Do Icterids 'nectar', I've never seen it?
The bird to me, just does not look like an Oriole.
