MIGRATING BALTIMORE ORIOLES IN MY YARD

     They're here!!  or, they were here.  This first flock of beautiful migrating Baltimore Orioles, the family, got here on the 28th.

Then, I saw the very beautiful male Baltimore Oriole on the 29th and this was the best photo I could get of him.

Usually, they hang out in my yard for several days to two weeks.  But, I think this first flock has already moved on.  And, I wondered if the wind currents from hurricane Isaac might have influenced their early departure. 
Anyway, I'm sure I'll see two or three more flocks passing through and, hopefully, hanging out here for a while.
