[cobirds] FOS Bullock's Oriole, Douglas County

We heard the telltale begging call at 6:30 am, looked out the window and a beautiful male was sitting in the lilacs next to the hook meant to hold the oriole feeder, which was sitting empty on our kitchen counter. : (  

May 1 is the earliest we've seen the orioles.  This one must have been here last year otherwise how would he have known that's where feeder is supposed to be.  We've had the feeder out during the day for a few days, but have to take it in at night because of raccoons.  We'll now start getting up much earlier in order to put the feeder out for them.

So exciting!!
