Orioles came to my suet last year as well................and ignored the
"other stuff".

I found it very interesting that the Orioles have been coming to the suet.
They've never touched the suet here. They just go to the jelly feeders.
They've never touched the oranges I put out either. They must like the sugar
high from the jelly.

Yesterday we had a female Oriole drinking nectar from our Lungwort. She
systematically worked through the many flowers. This was a first for me.

I live a few houses down from Marie and it is remarkable how delayed things are
on the hill this year. We have lived here for three years and this is the
first year that the Orioles have shown any interest in orange slices that we
leave for them. The previous two years they have routinely fed on the suet
(which they are doing this year as well). However, they are going through the
orange slices at a rapid rate. Interestingly, we moved here from eastern
Massachusetts, where we routinely had orioles that fed on our suet.
We did have a few migrants in the yard yesterday evening include a
black-throated blue warbler, redstart, and chestnut-sided warbler. A catbird
returned yesterday. Surprisingly tree swallows, which have nested here every
year, have not returned.
