I live in the northeast of the USA and love birds can you tell me how best to attract a baltimore oriole?

Answer 1

Bat your eyelashes when you ask for his autograph at Camden Yards.

Answer 2

In your part of the country Baltimore Orioles are moderatly common.

They are a primarily an insect eating bird. So commercial bird seed wont really attract them.

They will eat berries as well as some food we throw on the ground.

To attract them to your yard at times can be a feat but well worth the effort.

The best way is to put up a nest box for them.

According to BIRDWATCH magazine, they prefer an L shaped nest box securly hidden facing the South East, They generally like the nest 7 feet off the ground against a tree or wall, like the side of your house.

I hope this helps

Best Of Luck Joe
