Altamira Oriole

Texas

Icterus gularis

The Altamira Oriole is probably my personal favorite Lower Rio Grande Valley bird. Something about that bright orange really appeals to me. They seem to really light up any place with their presence.

That would look great on a South Texas bird calendar.

I agree with you on their brightness - more striking than the Northern or Bullock's especially when found in this environment
