The summer months
are one of my favorite times for birding because it is the height of variety, and there are so many baby birds too. For July and August, I had a hard time choosing photos, so here you see some of the alternatives I considered, along with the two final choices, the Red-bellied Woodpecker and the dramatic Blue Jay (taking a sun bath). The immature Orchard Oriole was a fabulous surprise, and I always love the look of the immature Red-winged Blackbirds. Well, and I love Blue Jay babies in all their loud, demanding and adorable glory.

Good birds of today included this orchard oriole who must have returned in the last few days, plus recently returned barn swallows and migrating black and white warblers. I also heard horned larks and saw a kestrel. Others like brown thrashers, towhees, blue-gray gnatcatchers, hermit thrushes and tree swallows have been back for a while. Every day there are new birds. Expecting wood thrushes and catbirds any time. Hummingbirds too. During the migration I may make bird tally posts. If you don’t want to see them just mute #bird tally . :-) I get pretty excited about this.

BOTD: Orchard Oriole
Tumblr media
Photo: Ad Konings
"Most common in the Midwest and South is this small oriole. It favors open areas with scattered groves of trees, so human activities may have helped it in some areas, opening up the eastern woodlands and planting groves of trees on the prairies. Orchard Orioles often gather in flocks during migration. The black-throated young male, sitting alone in a treetop and singing his jumbled song, is often confusing to beginning birders."

Orchard Oriole
Nest construction season is well underway. The female Orchard Oriole uses long strands of grass to weave its suspended nest.

Feathursday Orioles!
Here are a few chromolithographic Feathursday Orioles, along with a Kingbird and a Flycatcher, from our 2-volume set of Our Native Birds of Song and Beauty, by the late-19th-century director of the Milwaukee Public Museum Henry Nehrling, and published in Milwaukee by George Brumder from 1893-1896. The lithographs are based on original water color paintings by the German naturalist painter Anton Goering. The individual birds from top to bottom are:
Baltimore Oriole (Icterus galbula), male.
Baltimore Oriole (Icterus galbula), female.
Orchard Oriole (Icterus spurius).
Eastern Kingbird (Tyrannus tyrannus).
Bullock's Oriole (Icterus bullockii).
Scott's Oriole (Icterus parisorum).
Hooded Oriole (Icterus cucullatus).
Scarlet Flycatcher (Pyrocephalus rubinus).

I worked in the veggie garden today,
and there was so much bird song going on that I put out Merlin to tell me who sings. Merlin picked up a lot, even a Tennessee Warbler, which makes me want to go explore. While I was shoveling, I spotted this guy, an immature male Orchard Oriole. I usually get an Orchard O at least for a day or two and was hoping this year too, so this was very nice. I love how his brown adult feathers are creeping in on the “bib”. I also saw a Catbird today, hopefully it comes to the feeders too.
