The Altamira oriole is a New World oriole. The bird is widespread in subtropical lowlands of the Mexican Gulf Coast and northern Central America, the Pacific coast and inland. They have since spread to southern Texas, but this was not until 1939.

The Elites don't fear the tall nails, government possesses both the will and the means to crush those folks. What the Elites do fear (or should fear) are the quiet men and women, with low profiles, hard hearts, long memories, and detailed target folders for action as they choose.

...never seen a Altamira oriole but we do get Baltimore Orioles during the winter...
About 15 years ago mom and dad had a single Baltimore hanging around their backyard in Moncks Corner. I told them about putting out peanut butter so now it has grown into a massive feeding station wintering 30+ Baltimore orioles. Now from November through April, Dad cuts oranges, fills drilled out 2x4s with peanut butter and drips grape jelly into cups two times a day unless it's cold then he has to do it three times. He grumbles that whole time and blames me for his plight.

Yep. The Baltimore is a beauty too.
Another beautiful bird we get here part of the year is the Summer Tanager. I was in the wood all the time growing up and I swear I don't remember seeing any Summer Tanagers back then. Now I see them all the time. I know if they had been there I would have seen them. It's not like they're camouflaged, there is no other bird out there that is that red except the cardinals. But cardinals eat seeds and such and tend spend most of their time in the understory. The Summer Tanager is the exact opposite. It's usually high in the trees. It's also a highly agile flyer that catches bugs on the wing.

I have seen summer and Scarlett tanagers this year. I never knew how many painted buntings we had until I figured out what to look for.
