This little birdie sat awhile on the back fence and then sipped quietly at the hummingbird feeder. A somewhat drabber version sat nearby and I'm thinking that it was the female of the pair. It was perhaps 6 inches long. I wish I knew what it was..... (For reference, the fence post is a bit over 5 inches wide. )

How much did you decide to sell them for?? Everyone at work said between 5-10.
The birds look fantastic on the coffee sleeves Bella .... you have a real flair for colour and design.
The visitor to your back yard looks very interesting with his orange neck and stripey back feathers.
Thanks, Alice! And I just wish I knew what kind of bird it was. I've never seen one like it. So colorful.
Mallory, I haven't decided yet. I will tell the shop owner what you found out..... I think I'll let her decide. ????
My cousin, a veterinarian, says the bird is a Bullock's Oriole! Thanks Jill.
