Yesterday while picking up my race kit for the Mississauga  half marathon, I spied this male oriole at fountain on someone's front lawn

Thanks Andygod.  Enjoyed the run this morning, listening to all the cardinals and blackbirds along the way, sighting a mute swan in the JC Saddington Park area.  Not my best time but didn't train enough for it.
