Contortionist

This male Baltimore Oriole (Icterus galbula) was gleaning small insects from the dried leaves.  In doing so, he performed all kinds of contortions and exposed his beautiful black and orange back, the orange shoulder patch and the white-edged feathers on the wing.  This is the first Baltimore Oriole that I see long enough and close enough to make a photograph.
