Here is a second image in portrait mode. These were the only two good shots that I was able to get before he went off to hide under the leaves. Tried to get him to come out for more pics but he just spent the rest of the time cackling at me from a distance. The more beautiful the bird, the harder they are to photograph.

Quite a few male orioles on the bike path near the Kamloops airport. Seemed a bit different this year as many nests were right down low and not high in the cottonwood trees like usual.

Found a couple of nice Bullock's Orioles at Grant Narrows near Pitt Lake this weekend.

A male bullock's oriole holds himself up between two branches as he chases other orioles in his territory.

Sorry about this one. I had to settle for a bit of a crop. Didn't have the 600mm with me this time so I took this image with the 100-400mm. No, I did not crank up the saturation. Colors are as they came out of the camera.
