Hi there,

         I was in my backyard late this afternoon, filling the 
feeders and cleaning the bird baths prior to tomorrow's count, when 
to my surprise three Baltimore Orioles flew into a mountain ash tree 
next door.  As the sun set, they moved into some conifers in a 
neighbour's yard and disappeared for the night.  These are the first 
I've seen in my neighbourhood this fall, although they are probably 
the same birds reported to the NS-RBA Mr. Frauzel on Poplar Street on 
December 8th - we are only a block apart.  It is also possible that 
this is part of the flock of eight currently tending Susann Myers' feeders
on Vienna Street, which are about five blocks west of my home.
