We have this tree at work that draws all kinds of different birds. In the past couple of days, I've got Hummers, Titmice, Common House Finches, Song Sparrows, Yellow Rumped Warblers, and today the tree was full of most of the above plus a gold finch (guessing here it was the size of a canary but yellowish) and two of these Orioles... I ended up missing the Goldfinch...
OMG.... I had no idea we had Orioles in California! You've named off a lot of birds I didn't know we had here. What a smorgasbord of photography subjects you have right within comfortable shooting range you've got!! And my gosh, this is a stunning capture... the composition is no less than a 10... and the bird is perched up there so proudly. The colors are just lushious... I mean, yummy!!! You've done well.... what a fabulous, fabulous photo!!! Thank you for all the info in your "about" - much appreciated. Easily a 7/7 Best wishes, Brigitte
