Can't tell, so I figured I'd ask y'all. Not the best quality image, but first time I saw a bird like this. Bright orange in color with black head. Black wing with white spot...

I was packing up after a 3 hour bird photographing adventure when it appeared on a tree, right above my car. Thanx for the help guys... I checked it on "Identify a bird" site, but wasn't 100% sure.

Pretty birds. They are crazy during mating season here right now. Thursday I was sitting in the grass by a path in the wetlands and three of them few withing a couple feet of my face. Then today, two landed right in front of me while I was in the car then took off chasing each other before I could get a decent shot off. :)
