A deviation from my Sicilian adventures, to my everyday reality.
After fixing and cleaning up dinner, I decided to set up my camera on the tripod in the kitchen window to catch the Orioles and Hummers at dusk. They always become more active at that time.
I have had 2-3 pairs of Orioles coming the last few years in the Spring. With 2 varieties and their mates. They are such a gorgeous yellow and black.
Here are a few pictures from this evening....

If you look closely, there are 3 hummers, the one in the back is comical through the liquid of the feeder.
