While working from home yesterday (the only good part of this snowstorm), I found this inquisitive little guy perched on my windowsill, apparently fascinated with the spreadsheet I was working on. He looks nothing like an oriole. So what’s with the title of the post?
I have been accused on many occasions of mistaking a robin for an oriole, something that seems odd based on the picture above and my other reference point. Fortunately, just a minute later, one of his friends, a true oriole impostor, showed up at my window. See below, and you might understand why, from a distance, they can sometimes be difficult to differentiate.
