I don't think I've ever seen an Oriole, but it's very pretty. We find quite a few birds sharing the hummingbird food--even a woodpecker one day. Guess they have a sweet tooth!

Orioles will go for the necture at the hummingbird feedersOriginally Posted by erstan947
The last 3 days I have been entertained by an Oriole. He is so colorful but the hummingbirds are in a snit! Orioles are not usually around here. He must have made a left turn somewhere! Sure has been fun to watch:)
when there is no jelly around. They love the fact that there is sugar there for their taking.

Pretty! I haven't seen one around here (Western PA) in years. Enjoy. To get him to leave the hummingbird feeders alone, cut an orange in half, and nail it to a tree. They love it!

We had some Orioles last year and the hummers didn't like them at their feeder. Haven't seen any yet this year.
I put out oranges cut in half for them but I think the woodpeckers ate more than the Orioles. LOL

Looks to me that the Hummingbirds have plenty of feeders in your yard. Enjoy 'Mr. Oriole' as I find that they don't stay around long......
