Oriole at lunch
Route 9, Belchertown
Photograph and text by Anne E. Ely, South Hadley
If you have a hummingbird feeder don’t be surprised if you see orioles helping themselves, as is this immature male Baltimore Oriole off Route 9 in Belchertown. A small dish of grape jelly will also make them happy, as will cut oranges.
This fellow was captured with my tripod mounted DSLR camera and a medium length telephoto lens.
