<html><div style='background-color:'><DIV class=RTE>Hi All, </DIV>&nbsp;&nbsp; On May 14th I observed what I assumed, wrongly it turns out, was a molting Baltimore Oriole near my house. I took some not very good video and a few notes as the molting pattern seemed odd to me. When a few days later I reviewed the video I noted the bicolour tail (dark center &amp; yellow outers) I marked it down as Baltimore Oriole. But just in case I was wrong, as happens on occasion, I sent a few photos and notes to Ian McLaren for confirmation. He emailed me back that it was an 1st. year male Orchard Oriole which,contrary to most field guide images, can have a bicolour tail.
