Observation details
I saw some movement upstream of the lodge and in a sycamore, I saw it in a sycamore, an orange like an oriole but with yellow highlights in the sun. This color contrasted to the black wings which were spotted and barred with white. Bird had a heavy dark bill. The dark auriculars were very conspicuous giving it a dirty-faced look. I learned later that this bird was the male--I saw the female but not well as well. The male perched for a minute with its back to me, showing a dark back streaked with black and a lighter streaked rump. Watched for about 10 minutes when the pair flew upstream accompanied by a male HETA. The birds were very active, chasing each other and BHGR. They gave a "chuck" call See sketch for additional notes.
