A Brand New Couple

Today I was chatting with Taigen, discussing what all needed to be done or packed in order to help get us ready for our upcoming WA trip. I turned to glance outside and noticed an Oriole at our feeder! These are not frequent attenders. In fact, I can only recall one other time that I've seen one. I quickly grabbed the camera and hoped he would not fly away. He went away from the feeder as I focused the lens, but only went up to a nearby branch. I snapped a few photos of him and noticed the female close by. Unfortunately, she flew away too quickly for me to get a picture of her. I'm so excited for the new couple in our neighborhood. I hope they come back.
