awesome pic of an oriole chick! I've never seen a oriole chick before, just an adult once when I lived in Maryland.

I've once spied an adult oriole over at the Arboretum, but I've never seen one of the chicks. I have, however, seen many fledgling sparrows and starlings this week pestering their parents for food. They get up close, start chirping insistently and fluttering their wings, but the parent birds always fly away. Tough love, kiddo.
