Description
SPOT BREASTED ORIOLE
A Spot Breasted Oriole perches on a twig in a wetlands preserve in South Florida. This was my first time seeing one of these beautiful birds, I saw a flash of yellow in a tree and then I saw the bird flitting around from branch to branch. I was able to quickly get a couple of photos before it flew away but now I've seen it a few times since then along with its mate. The Spot Breasted Oriole is native to Mexico and Central America and was introduced to South Florida in the 40's.
