Orchard Oriole?

When I first saw this bird at Bronte Creek PP on July 15, I thought it was an American Redstart: it was small and more red than orange. Then I saw it was feeding a yellow juvenile. As I got closer, I saw it wasn't a Redstart. It looked more like an Orchard Oriole. Is it?

Yes, Orchard Oriole.

Thanks!

That means that there was a nesting pair at Bronte Provincial Park in July who had successfully fledged at least one youngster, as this male was steadily bringing food back to feed a young yellow but fully able to fly bird. Both birds flew across a field and landed in various shrubs a few times. Since they have an abandoned orchard at Bronte it's even aptly named.
