Orchard Oriole Birds with Nest Audubon Stainless Steel Water Bottle

This lovely vintage reproduction of John James Audubon’s Plate 42 from Birds of America captures a family of Orchard Orioles nesting in a honey locust tree, set against a soft pastel blue background that evokes the sky. Known for their smaller size compared to the Baltimore Oriole, these striking birds add a touch of color and charm to any space. The male in this family of five is a striking combination of black and chestnut, while the female showcases soft yellow and green tones. Young males resemble females, with the addition of a black throat. About the size of a sparrow, the Orchard Oriole is a lively songbird with a complex, rapid warbling call. Both parents are dedicated caregivers, feeding and nurturing their young. Audubon’s detailed depiction brings out the warmth and beauty of these birds in their natural setting, making it a perfect piece for bird lovers, art collectors, and those who appreciate the timeless beauty of nature.
