I am in Toronto @ The Bluffs area. We had Orioles arrive almost three weeks ago. I love their call and the Rose-Breasted Grosbeaks stopped by for a weekend as well. These are Neo-tropic birds that fly a long way. I put out cut oranges and Welch’s grape jelly. They are at it most of the day. I grease the bird feeder pole with Vaseline to keep the squirrels away. It works and it does not harm them, but they hate it and it is very effective. I also put out a nesting bell and fill it with soft material items for them to build their nests. They usually stay for the month of June. I hope they do again this year. I just love to see their bright orange colours and to hear their pretty songs. I love Baltimore Orioles! 🧡🖤🧡

I use oriole feeders and turned a Home Depot orange bucket upside down - that seems like a big target for them.

I reside in Northeast Wisconsin on the door peninsula. We are about 3/4 of a mile inland from Lake Michigan so it’s a definite flyway for migrating birds of many types. This is my first year as I’ve been feeding birds for most of my life that I have had Orioles (they have so many beautiful different songs and they’re loud). There is a very dark blue bird that has appeared only ones that I’ve never seen before perhaps it’s the male? Two other birds that I can’t figure out have arrived as well. This is a great site and I hope to continue learning from what you put up here with my children to see especially since most of us have to stay at home. What a great time to learn! Stay safe.

I've watched one female, hope to see more.

I have five or six of them along with bluebirds Blue Jays three types of woodpeckers and a piloted and the usual J Kos or Jochums I forget how to pronounce her name and Robbins and what not. The bright colored birds are eating the oranges and the grape jelly for theFirst time.

Jared, depending on were you live, it might be a slow time until July. When orioles first get back they are veracious eaters an hit the feeders hard.. In June they are nesting and need bugs for their babies, so it slows down at the feeders. After the babies fledge, they come back to the feeders before migration. It is possible if you live in the city and not near any good oriole habit (tree lines along creeks, rivers & lakes) that it might take you a couple summers to attract them.

It's not, they use it for energy. Like Hummingbirds. You can feed many different fruits as well.

Maybe some one here can ‘Help me’ Identify a Bird here In Kansas (just South of Wichita); It’s a Shiny Shimmering Black = LIKE OIL on Water, with a nearly “NEON Orange” Breast plumage (No .. It’s NOT a “RED-Breasted” Blackbird) It’s the … “Orangest Orange” … I’ve EVER Seen; This Bird IS Surreal in It’s appearance, a Magnificent Sight; It’s a Medium (Larger than a Cardinal) Size Bird, no Other Markings Just It’s incredibly brilliant DEEP BRIGHT Orange Breast Plumage. This is the 4th year I seen IT and I’ve lived in This Home for 22 years now and I ONLY See Just (This) ONE! ... I’ve Tried “GOOGLING” IT; … Going to the Library To Research Audubon Listing of Birds ingenious to the State of Kansas; … I CAN’T Find THIS Bird Anywhere except for IN My YARD; … on Rare Occasions (Once or twice a Month; till about September, Then It’s GONE until The Next SPRING); ... ANY and ALL Help would be “GREATLY Appreciated” PS. I also have a SINGLE ‘Yellow-breasted (Baltimore) Oriole’; and oddly enough, their appearance and length of seasonal stay seem to coincide with each other. (This "Orange Breasted Bird" Is NOT an Oriole; In a "side-by-side comparison" they are absolutely "NOTHING Alike"!)

Can you provide a link to to a picture somehow? There is a red breasted blackbird but it would be in Central / South America. If you can get a picture, post it and let us see it. You can also send it to Cornell rare bird sightings.

@@errykflows8683 I know but the description sounds like the pattern of a red breasted blackbird. What can happen is red can be in the spectrum of yellow to orange to red. The Yellow and orange are rare but as an example we get house finch here that are orange not red. They are rare. Just a thought based on your description. If you ever do get a picture, someone will be able to identify it though.
