Orioles

17 years ago

We have had many orioles come to our grape jelly and orange feeders this year. We live in West Branch and the east side of town has been loaded with orioles. I have not heard or seen any since the begining of August. It seems too early for them to be migrating. We do have a wooded area on our property and I have not heard any in the woods. Any ideas? Thanks

Sorry they left early. I don't have any ideas for you. I did look on-line to find out when they migrate and a couple of site mentioned August & Sept.

Guess we'll just have to wait til next year!
