About These Birds

Audubon's Oriole

Audubon's Oriole is a strikingly colored blackbird found in dense woodland and thorn forest along the US-Mexico border region. Weighing about 41.6g with a wingspan of 17.4cm, it has a black head and tail contrasting with yellow body plumage. It forages for insects, nectar, and fruit and is notable for its rich, melodic whistled song.

Baudo Oropendola

The Baudo Oropendola is a large, colonial oropendola restricted to the humid lowland forests of the Chocó region in northwestern Colombia. Males are chestnut-brown with a yellow tail and build long, pendulous woven nests in colonies. Its vulnerable status reflects the rapid destruction of Chocó rainforest, one of the world's most biodiverse and threatened regions.
