Oliver:
Looks like a hooded oriole in breeding plumage. You're in San Francisco so
it's the right territory too.
I live in Saratoga near San Jose, and I've never seen one of these. Of
course my usual haunts are near the Bay or in the Eastern Sierras, so I
probably missed this oriole's usual brushy, lower elevation habitat.

About ten days ago, on a typical foggy San Francisco summer day, a visitor appeared in the bush below our dining room window that is normally frequented only by hummingbirds. He left after a couple of days. I made a picture through the window. M6, 90mm Elmarit, Agfa Optima 100. What kind of bird was it? Oliver Bryk
