My yellow whale - a photo on Flickriver

My yellow whale

            A yellow oriole (Icterus nigrogularis) in flowering aloe. Hearing its song would send me into the garden to try to get one feeding. Even though it is is interesting to see the oriole with its beak deep into the flower, those images didn't quite work, at least for now. Still in pursuit of my "yellow" whale, but for now, this simple shot of the bird perched on a stalk will do just fine.
