Baltimore Orioles
We have just one more row of newly planted Chenin blanc to tether to the fruiting wire, so this morning, we went to the land in search of the Baltimore Oriole that we see when we reach the north end of our vineyard and sit on our picnic bench for a short respite.
We thought we saw the nest of the oriole, so this morning, we took our camera and put it on a tripod so that we could get some photos. It was a breezy morning, so we tried to get the best shot possible. We waited and in a while, we saw both the female and the male orioles:
Seeing such wonderful sites as this mating pair of Baltimore Orioles is the icing on the cake that makes working in the vineyard a continual joy.
