Orioles Are Back!
It’s that thrilling time of year when Baltimore Orioles are making their grand return to Tallahassee! These striking, fruit-loving songbirds usually arrive in early September and stick around through April, adding vibrant color and cheerful melodies to our backyards.
Want to roll out the orange carpet for them? We’ve got everything you need! Orioles can’t resist juicy orange slices, a dollop of grape jelly, or some protein-packed mealworms served on a tray-style feeder. They’ll also happily sip homemade nectar... just mix ¼ cup of sugar with 1 cup of warm water, and fill your oriole feeder.
Keep their treats fresh and feeders squeaky clean for the best chance to keep them coming back for more. A little patience pays off—you’ll be rewarded with some of the most dazzling backyard visitors in North America!
