Off and on for about an hour this morning before going to work I watched a male Baltimore Oriole eating half an orange I had fixed to the railing of the deck. It was definitely a male Baltimore Oriole but it's tail feathers had about an inch of quite yellow, not orange, at the tips. It was absolutely beautiful. Is this a known variant, or a common variation and something I should have seen before? Marilyn Ray
