This morning I spotted a bright orange object in the orchard, thought a raven might have dropped a tangerine skin. I went out to look and as I came round the house the ravens had spotted it and one hopped over, grabbed it and flew away. I found a bunch of orange feathers strewn about, a hawk or one the local barred owls must have hit it. March 19 fr Northern Oriole? seems early -- Tobias Dean, Furnituremaker 124 Yaple Rd.
