That's Not a Hummingbird

But just as exciting to see!

Imagine our surprise to see a beautiful Baltimore Oriole on this dreary morning on the hummingbird feeder.

We don't remember ever seeing an Oriole in our yard.

 The Baltimore Oriole (Icterus galbula) is a small icterid blackbird that averages 18 cm long and weighs 34 g. This bird received its name from the fact that the male's colors resemble those on the coat-of-arms of Lord Baltimore.

I have now learned visits to hummingbird feeders aren't uncommon

Source: Wikipedia:
Baltimore Orioles forage in trees and shrubs, also making short flights to catch insects. They mainly eat insects, berries and nectar, and are often seen sipping at hummingbird feeders. Oriole feeders contain essentially the same food as hummingbird feeders, but are designed for orioles, and are orange instead of red and have larger perches. Baltimore Orioles are also fond of halved oranges, grape jelly and, in their winter quarters, the red arils of Gumbo-limbo (Bursera simaruba).
