Orioles are Back!!

Post by LucyGoose »

I thought that I saw a female a few days back, so I quickly put out more jelly. Nothing....never did see another....so the bees have been eating the jelly.....The just a few minutes ago, I see a male....Yippeeee, I just put out more jelly, now it's raining, so I will have to go dump water throughout the day, but hey, if they are back, I am glad!! last year they stayed all summer...the year before they did like this year.....left, then came back....I just love them.... :D

Before criticizing someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them you will be a mile away and have their shoes!

:oops: I never can get them.....Plus, now I haven't seem them again......I think they are still here, but when I put the jelly out for them, some stupid different looking black and white striped bee's would let them eat.....they would fly in and just perch there, cause of the bee's....I had to take it down.....I might put it up again, though.....hate to disappoint the birds....
