What a beautiful bird is the Baltimore Oriole!  What a joy it is to see that
flash of color and there is in front of your eyes this gorgeous example of
the color palette at its best. This is one bird that we don't see all washed
out as many of the other beautiful birds come to us.

To visit Fran Rutkovsky's yard (and Paul's, of course) is like being served
a Bacchanalian feast!

In this case, you have two to choose from.  Please remember to give Fran a
telephone call before you go there.  She is generous with her yard and time,
but it is only courteous to give her advance warning.  If you wish to write
her, her email address is [log in to unmask]

Thanks, Fran, for providing us with so many sightings and images.

One BAOR image is attached to this message and there is one of each of the
two BAOR's on the website at: http://bkpass.tripod.com/floridabirds.htm
