I was shooting Baltimore Orioles at my feeding station when I noticed this bird. At first I thought it was a female but was confused by the black on the throat and now I'm not sure what it is. This was taken in Wisconsin about 60 miles east of Saint Paul, Mn.

Thanks in advance

Phil, I think it is a first year male Orchard Oriole.
