What kind of bird is this?

Only pick I was able to get. It was about as tall as a Cardinal, but thinner.

It is an oriole

Can’t tell if Orchard or Baltimore female…..I lean more towards Orchard

Put some jelly out where you would like to take a picture and see if you can get a better one

We have Baltimore Orioles that visit for about 2 weeks and move on……

Molly baits them with cherries and they “pose”

When that happens……don’t get between Molly and the camera

"Molly" is a name that I associate with quiet, meek, polite, etc. She may very well be all of these, but it doesn't sound like it when the birds are in town..

Kurt, here's a very terrible, out of focus, cellphone pic i just took of a female baltimore.. it's more orange than the orchard oriole female i had here a few weeks earlier. the orchard was more greenish-yellow, vs orange-ish yellow. (It very well could be a juvenile bird as well?)

i couldn't get very close because the window is 5'x5' and it was about 2ft from it.

Looks like it to me, but I'm obviously not good at recognizing them.
Thanks.

Trust me on this point…….there are a lot of people that should be glad she isn’t in charge of this country……..:yes:

not a lot of gray in her world

I will check some old hard drives and see if I can come up with a photo or two

she sounds like my kind of gal!

here's another crapper picture with the phone on full zoom thru a dirty window..

She's got stuff in her beak so i might be having a nest built nearby??
