I've been trying for days to get another picture of the orioles. The female is cagy. She peeks through the grapevines looking for me before she comes to the feeder. Today, I got one of her on the fence. In the second one she spied me just as I was taking the picture so it's a little blurry as she was taking off.

Well done Dooley, good pictures.
We don't see Orioles around here, you can go about 50 miles north and see a few in the spring but I guess they don't like the big city.

Dooley that first piccie is terrific. You must have a lot of patience to be able to catch that female with your camera. Well done.
