Oriole Bird Feeder
An oriole bird feeder isn't one
certain style of feeder. Orioles eat primarily insects and
caterpillars so you can't attract them with a seed
feeder.
They do have a sweet tooth and they
love nectar. Orioles will drink from a nectar feeder with a
perch. Orioles are partial to the color orange and are attracted to
the color so watch for an orange nectar feeder.
They also like
oranges. You can cut an orange in half and place it on a nail
that sticks through a board for a special treat for the orioles.
Orioles will eat from suet feeders or ground up suet and bread
in a ground feeder.
Orioles can also be attracted to a yard by planting grape
vines and berries. They can't resist these tasty treats.
These beautiful birds tend to stay in
the tops of trees so you don't see them often. The males have a
gorgeous brilliant orange or bright yellow bodies and shiny black hoods,
wings and tails. Orioles have a wonderful
whistling song.
