I was in my yard working one day and saw a pair of Orioles scouting branches in my Pin Oak. A few days later I saw them eating from my hummingbird feeder. I put some cut oranges out and grape jelly and they found the oranges. Sorry about the distance pic, but they are still a little shy of me. This is the male eating an orange I skewered on an old garden rake. I hope to get some closer pics as they get used to seeing me. Right now he chews me out when he wants to feed and I am there! His nest is above him in the oak tree.
going to turn that old ladder into a plant stand. She eats too, he is a pig. Don't think they have eggs yet, still looks like they are building. I will try to get more pics as they settle in. I don't want to scare them away. That old garden rake has one of my clematis climbing it and it has a tine that is turned upward and holds the orange very well!
