Well! I was wrong, I guess! I got some pictures through that window later, and this one is definitely NOT the Audubon's! I know I've seen a bird with much more yellow than this coming to the hummingbird feeder also. Maybe it could be the same species, only a juvenile or adult female. Anyway, I'm tending to believe this one could be a Scott's Oriole, just not sure. Wish I'd gotten better pictures, but I realize I was lucky to catch any at all! Wonder why these birds are coming here now.

I would feel more optimistic about a bright future for man if he spent less time proving that he can outwit Nature and more time tasting her sweetness and respecting her seniority. E. B.White
Integrity can never be taken. It can only be given, and I wasn't going to give it up to these people. Gary Mowad
