I was walking by the Boxley Pond yesterday, when I spotted a larger yellow-green bird on a clump of button Bushes in the center of the mill pond. Upon closer inspection, there was a young Oriole (not sure if it was an Orchard or Northern Oriole, but I believe Northern Oriole). He was really working each and every button for nectar. I watched from about 75 yards distance and took a dozen photos at long range. I used my Canon 50D with a Canon 400 f/5.6 L lens, my go to combination for hiking-photography for wildlife:
