Golden Oriole

Oriolus oriolus

The Golden Oriole adult male has vivid golden-yellow plumage contrasted with black wings and tail, giving it a boldly divided appearance. A yellow patch interrupts each black wing, the outer tail feathers have broad yellow tips, and the back and breast are uniformly yellow without streaking or spotting. A narrow black stripe runs from the base of the reddish bill to the eye, sharply defining the otherwise yellow face.
