Since I had never seen an Orchard Oriole I was inspired by the reports of the "oriole convention" at Fletcher's boathouse, so I rode my bike down there at around 6:00 Friday evening. At first I couldn't find the Orchard Orioles, but I did find 2 Great Crested Flycatchers, and as I was watching one of them, 2 Orchard Orioles flew into my field of vision to chase the flycatcher away!! This action was taking place in the trees in the picnic area next to the riverbank. Thanks for the heads up on the orioles!
