Visit from an oriole

The orioles have been around, but their visits to the back yard buffet are rare. This is a female...not nearly as colorful as the male. I was born in Baltimore, so I knew the Baltimore Orioles were both a bird and a baseball team. A new fact I just learned is that the male's colors resembled those on the coat of arms of Lord Baltimore, which is the source of their name.
