Hi Bob,

Welcome back to the list!  Orioles can't make it through winter here on 
oranges alone.  In fact, the one I helped overwinter wouldn't touch 
oranges in midwinter!  I find that most of the birds that are North of 
their normal winter range have a greater than normal need for high fat 
and protein diets and sugar.  This means suet, peanut butter, mealworms 
on occasion, and jelly (Grape jelly for Orioles), as well as black oil 
sunflower seeds (preferably hulled, as many of them don't have the right 
beaks for easily opening the hulled seed, and they need to eat a LOT to 
get them through the cold).  I'm no expert, this is just from my 
experience and the reading I did to help my little female survive the 
winter.
