Spotted this bright yellow bird this morning in Plantation FL. All my research points to an Oriole. Correct?

no expert here, but it looks like a young male Orchard Oriole to me.

I think I got it. I was told that based on the location it is likely a juvenile Spot-breasted Oriole. Young ones are bright yellow and adults are orange.

Nice shots of this guy! Indeed a Spot-breasted Oriole. The spots are harder to see here, but the black back also differentiates it from a first year male Orchard Oriole.
