Backyard Bird Photos
It was suggested I post these here. One is a baby robin on his first day out of the nest, the other a northern oriole reaching for an orange. Both are in my backyard.

2. Love them both!!
I never see orioles around here so that is a treat! I had no idea that they ate oranges. That is very cool.

You came to the right place to post bird pictures--that's for sure. Keep it up.

3. I guess they winter in more tropical climates
Which explains their love of citrus fruits.

4. That Robin baby is about the cutest thing I have seen in a looong time.
To my eye the photo is simply perfect. I love the lighting and the crisp focus.
Love the Oriole, I think Celebration and I will probably be presenting orange halves in our yards.
I don't think I've ever seen an Oriole.

It sounds like this may be your first time posting here, please come back and show us more.
