The Oriole and Tanager, pictured above, like oranges. Cardinals, various woodpeckers and other birds will eat oranges as well.

I've been seeing a few of those blue birds, maybe one of the first two pics in the crape murtle tree out my kitchen window this spring. They are a small bird, very bright blue. Sunday I tried to sneak out and get a pic of one. It was too crafty tho and I couldn't get one. Pretty bird.

Great pics

When I was a kid (just a few years ago) I was fascinated by the sack nests of the Orioles in the Weeping Willow trees, very unusual.
