In the midst of the heavy rustling of cottonwood leaves and the lapping of waves on the shore, a twittering and chittering could be heard. At first it seemed to be just a part of the background of the windy day at Wyoming’s Pathfinder Reservoir. On investigation, though, it turned to be an upset female Bullock’s Oriole.
Her mate seemed to be busy flying back and forth and searching for food.
These were the only Bullock’s Orioles we saw on the whole trip.

I have never seen a bird that colour before. It looks amazing.
Mike,
Amazing pictures – thank you . We just were visited by a yellow group of birds I think are called Wilson Warblers? A stunning hour visit and then they were gone…no picture
Thank you
Amazing pictures Mike indeed. The bird has such pretty colors don’t you think? I love the Orange with the black.
