For years, we’ve put out orange halves for the orioles, but never had an oriole
feed from one. This year we put out grape jelly, and so far no orioles have
come to the feeder, even though we have seen and heard them. But, today we had
a mockingbird feeding from the grape jelly.

FOY RUBY THROATED HUMMINGBIRD, male, at my feeder now.
Besides 2 B. Orioles eating oranges impaled on small tree branches near deck,
2 G. Catbirds are eating grape jelly I had originally put out for the Orioles.
Second year I have seen that.
While helping up & down Lansing Station Rd for our neighborhood clean up day, I
heard a few B. Orioles, Rose Breasted Grosbeaks, & Black Throated Green
Warblers singing. Saw/heard a pair of American Redstarts, the first female of
that sp. I have seen here. I also saw a little Chipping Sparrow bathing
vigorously in a water-filled small ditch by a driveway.
Didn't have binocs along since they get in way of picking up & carrying junque,
plus it was raining steadily, so didn't get to look at some other birds present
in the gloom.
