    I had these beauties start to visit about a week ago..I love the bright colors and the beautiful sound they make...they are getting better about coming and eating grape jam while I am sitting on the patio. They don't drink much but I am on my second jar of jam already.

    Sorry about the size, I am having trouble getting them smaller on photobucket.

    The size of your piccies is just fine Sherry. Boy you have some handsome birds visiting your garden. If I put jam out for any of mine I'd be inundated by wasps!!! :eek:

    Thanks Sherry, what great shots. The Orioles here also eat alot of jelly and I also put out oranges. The ones I have here don't drink much either. They also like suet. Thanks for sharing.
