Walking in Discovery Park


These black and orange feathers were in a pile in the grass; there had been a skirmish of some kind, but I hope that the colorful bird escaped the jaws of whatever was chasing it...a hawk or maybe the eagle whose nest is nearby. It was difficult to capture them in paint so the feathers themselves are included in this photo. They seemed much brighter out in the sunlight than here in the studio under simulated sunshine lights. Could they be from an oriole?
