Here are some shots of a Bullock's Oriole family I saw while out in west Texas. It's my first time seeing and photographing them. Thanks for viewing.

The proud papa.

You got some good shots and I know these birds are hard to get shots of. I have been trying for the last few weeks myself with little luck. Just a few shots too far away is all. Congrats on your shots!

Thanks for the comments... paintmblak, scrumpy

The male was a pain to get because he nearly always perched in a spot in the tree with a lot of foliage.

And a chick to boot, wow, congrats on the lucky experience, I love the oriole, both visually and in song. I don't believe that I've ever seen a posted forum shot of a chick until now.
