What a beautiful bird. Unfortunately, they're fairly rare these days in Maryland. I understand that in years past, they were a fairly common sight in summer, hence the Baltimore baseball team being named the Orioles, but I haven't seen one around here since I was a kid.
Heck of a nice shot, too. How far away were you?
What I said when I saw the Grand Canyon for the first time: "The wide ain't wide enough and the zoom don't zoom enough!"

I've been living on my acreage since 1985 and my first and one time sighting of an oriole was four or five years ago.
This spring I had two males hanging around for a week or so before a female showed up but unfortunately they moved on, sigh...
I was about 16 - 17 feet away, this is the SOOC...
