Today we had a 1st fall female Baltimore Oriole picking insects from 
inside the Lilac leaves, and also in the apple tree.  Weds., Oct. 28th 
we had a 1st fall male B. Oriole, and a week earlier on the 21st an 
adult male.

Today's Oriole was accompanied by a N. Parula Warbler, which was also 
seen on Fri. Oct. 30 along with a flock of Golden-cr. Kinglets.  A 
female Red-winged Blackbird has been coming to the feeders for several 
days now, and several C. Grackles.  Yesterday I watched Crows chasing a 
Red-tailed Hawk.  The Bluejays are slowing down a bit with their 
seed-storage activities, but are still keeping most of the Finches 
away.  Today I saw only 1 Goldfinch.  It's definitely looking like 
November in our yard, but the apple leaves are still hanging on, so 
maybe more Orioles are on the way!
