Title: My Treat For Today
Post by: Wilma on June 19, 2010, 11:06:39 AM
Actually it was yesterday.  I had the pleasure of watching an oriole take a bath in my bird bath.  It is the first time I have even seen an oriole there.  The black and orange was a change from the blue and black that is usually bathing.

That's pretty neat Wilma. I have used oodles of yarn offering it to the orioles for their nest. I too got to see a neat thing yesterday, Mother BlueJay had her baby setting beside her on the bird feeder post. He was as large as she behaving like a real baby, fluttering and fussing wanting her to feed him. When it came time to fly, he flew as well as she did, so I think she was trying to wean him from his ways.
