Bullock's Oriole

Above: Male Bullock's Oriole (Icterus bullockii) near Morrison, Colorado. I've been seeing this bird around Morrison recently, but couldn't quite get a fix on what I was seeing. Today, Jennifer pointed this one out to me and I was so happy I took her to get ice cream.

It's really hard to believe the color of this bird. It's orange and yellow, with some black and white thrown in for good measure. This is the true color of the bird (in both photos). Jennifer pointed it out to me and I was like "Oh wow. You're getting ice cream for this one."
