We have had a pair of Orchard Orioles visiting our red hot poker blooms and
our bird bath for about 2 ½ weeks. A funny thing happened with the male a
couple of evenings ago. My husband took a pair of scissors to the flower bed
to dead-head some of the blooms and the male oriole swooped down at him and
started an alarm call. Was the funniest thing I have seen! Knew Mockingbirds
would defend feeding areas, but never thought an Oriole would! Thought I
would share, and would be happy to share our deck to anyone who needs an
Orchard Oriole for their bird list.
