My favourite Baltimore Oriole photograph...

Baltimore Oriole 
(Icterus galbula)
I took this photo in mid-May of this year during the spring migration.   It is a male Baltimore Oriole at one of the backyard feeders.   The orioles drink the sugar and water nectar in the feeders but also love the half oranges that we place on top of the feeders.   I've taken many photos and this one is my personal favourite.   This bird is one of five males, four females and two immatures.   What a joyful sight the orioles are after a long winter.
Please comment if you wish.
