This is a multi-part message in MIME format. --Boundary_(ID_PYftwhJdjSnTLvigipf6Bw) Content-type: text/plain; CHARSET=US-ASCII Content-transfer-encoding: 7BIT I had 3 orioles in my back yard last week, then noticed a fourth on the week-end. Today I was home with a cold, which gave me an opportunity to see that there were 5 at a time around the feeding cage. It's great to see them having an easy time of it, with this mild winter. Yesterday afternoon one showed up soaking wet, clearly having indulged in a good bathe. All are immature (first winter) birds. I thought all 5 were females, but today noticed a dark streak appearing on the head of the pesky aggressive one. Clearly he had me fooled. This is a good 2 months early for them to be moulting, in these northern climes. Cheers, Susann Myers --Boundary_(ID_PYftwhJdjSnTLvigipf6Bw) Content-type: text/html; CHARSET=US-ASCII Content-transfer-encoding: 7BIT <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN"> <HTML><HEAD> <META http-equiv=Content-Type content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"> <META content="MSHTML 6.00.6000.17107" name=GENERATOR> <STYLE></STYLE> </HEAD> <BODY bgColor=#ffffff> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I had 3 orioles in my back yard last week, then noticed a fourth on the week-end.
