Saw what I believe, based on their behavior, are two different males. First one was early morning. He obviously was familiar with my set-up which is the same as last year. The orange feeder has been out for weeks to the delight of my squirrels. The oriole landed on it but didn't eat. I rushed into the house and quickly filled and placed the oriole nectar feeder. He went to it directly and fed for several minutes. Later in the day, what I believe is a second male arrived and sat for 10 minutes near my hummer feeder looking puzzled. Eventually, he moved to the orange feeder and just sat there for a while, again looking (to me) like he was trying to figure it out. Eventually, he did find the nectar feeder and ate for a few seconds. Then he sat in a nearby tree for a while.
