The oriole was coming to a tube feeder about every 5-10 minutes for at least 3 hours until I left at 12:30. The feeder has a "deluxe" mix in it that I got as a Christmas gift, with a variety of shelled nuts, raisons, millet, and cracked corn. I did not see what the oriole was eating but I suspect it may have been the raisons. I don't know if it stayed around or not since I was not here this afternoon, but will of course look for it this weekend, and try to watch what it is eating.
Happy New Year!
