Actually, the bird your talking about is found mainly on the East Coast and in Western Canada. the species name is spelled “oriole”, the most common one around these parts “Maryland” is orange and black, I’ll find a picture of one to post here. but oddly enough, although it is the Maryland state bird, it is rare in Maryland.

Pippin, isn’t the Oriole a little larger bird than the smaller goldfinch family?
