Title: Backyard first - Baltimore Oriole
Post by: winz on May 11, 2014, 01:15:10 PM

I decided to try attracting Orioles this spring,  This morning I fashioned an orange holder from a coat hanger and hung it.  Lo and behold who showed up.. A backyard first

I find Orioles to be about the easiest bird to bring into a backyard.  "if you build it he will come"
Great idea, I bet you wish you would have tried years ago  :wink:

You're right Meghan.  I didn't think it would be that easy.  :D  I tried for hummers a couple of years ago and had no luck, so gave that up.
