This morning I just witnessed a dozen or more baltimore orioles feeding on my deck. They were eating my grape jelly, fighting over the 2 hummingbird feeders, and getting necter from my potted hybiscus trees. I've never seen so many at one time all trying to feed. I've also noticed the other birds have started to flock together the past 2 weeks. This is very early for them. They usually don't start until sometime in September here. It looks like it will be an early winter again.
