I’m hoping they visit my feeders in Brooktondale! Haven’t seen a Grosbeak in 
many, many years!

Yay! I think the few that are around are visiting feeders just to give us 
birders a thrill, then they are off to the next feeder to spread the joy!

Female Evening Grosbeak under the feeder NOW! Picking up spilled sunflower seed 
along with Mourning Doves, Juncoes, and a Tree Sparrow. The Bluejays keep the 
feeder to themselves, filling their crops then flying off to stash their dinner.

I have used oranges and grape jelly for years! They fight over the jelly dish.

The only time I had success with oranges for orioles was a number of years back 
when it was a cool, wet spring and the orioles arrived before there were any 
tree blossoms or much leaf-out. Unlike this spring!

We have put out orange halves for several years, but have yet to see any bird 
come to them, even though we hear and see orioles nearby.   --Marty

Thanks for the good idea!  I have just the suet feeder I could add the screws 
to.  I've fed the orioles for several years now.  I've had out oranges for a 
week now and no one has come for them.  I have Orioles, House Finches, and 
Catbirds come for the grape jelly.  Sometimes, I get a Red-Bellied Woodpecker 
that comes for oranges or jelly, but not so far this year.  They come for suet 
or seeds.  I'm hoping that if I try your technique with oranges, that I may get 
some new birds on the oranges.

For the past few years we've put oranges at our feeders. We have a suet feeder 
built like a wee house, made of resin/wood composite. I drilled two holes in 
the roof and screwed some long exterior screws - the kind you drive with a 
phillips screw gun - from the underside so they stick out of the top. Then half 
an orange is impaled in each. We did this because I read somewhere it would 
attract orioles.

It does. But it also is enjoyed by R-b Grosbeaks, B-h Cowbirds, various 
woodpeckers, titmice, chickadees, and even the grackles try to get to it, but 
the orioles chase them off. Having the orioles so close is a real delight, and 
has afforded us the best looks I've ever had of them.
