Indian Golden Oriole (F) - a photo on Flickriver

            I was waiting for the Orioles to show up as this is the time of year when they are seen in large numbers. I had been seeing them around the place for a few weeks now but did not get a chance to get clear shots. This one was clicked from the bedroom window. One of the most beautiful birds that visit my backyard. This bird is a female. The species was once considered to be a subspecies of the Eurasian Golden Oriole, but has been elevated to a full species on the basis of differences in morphology, plumage, calls and the fact that the two do not intergrade. The Indian Golden Oriole inhabits a range of habitats including open deciduous forests, semi-evergreen forests, woodland, forest edge, mangroves, open country with scattered trees, parks, gardens orchards and plantations.
