The is a beautiful winter adult male (complete with red in the face). I saw a bird fly into a brushy area. I swore that the bird I saw was a Baltimore Oriole. A minute later a bird flew over our heads. It was a Western Tanager. Dan later found a female baltimore oriole so I guess I wasn't wrong! If you go to Peat Meadow Park you can park along Milton Street. If you look NW you will see a white house that is along Burwell St (this house can be seen over a large area of low brush). In the back yard is an apple tree. The bird was seen in that apple tree. To the SW you can look toward the corner of Peat Meadow Rd and Oakley St. On this corner there are multiple fruit trees. The bird was also seen in those fruit trees. The bird was flying back and forth between these two areas. I suspect that the bird has been here for a while and likely will be here for a while longer. Several other birders were able to find the bird after we left.
