Eurasian golden oriole

The Eurasian golden oriole is a bright yellow songbird that summers in Europe and parts of Asia before flying to Africa for the winter. It’s the only oriole in its family that nests in cooler northern regions. Listen for its fluty whistle in leafy woodlands—it’s easier to hear than to spot among the treetops.

• Males are vivid yellow with black wings, while females are greener for camouflage.
• Migrates up to 6,000 miles between Europe and Africa each year.
• Nests high in trees, weaving a cup-shaped cradle from grass and twigs.
