If you look closely you can actually see Jessica Lange😁

Nice shot! I love the angle, it gives the building more height and depth😊

The day the orioles arrive at my feeders is annually my highest-volume photography day. My favorite bird: bright coloring, a nice voice, they rule the roost for about a month for me.
Yeah the males especially are fighting over the jelly and orange slice feeders and both male and female going for hummingbird feeders even with all the jelly and orange slices LOL. They are so colorful indeed and I end up with way more photos than I probably need LOL

A few years back I would put feeders out but saw none. But about 6 years ago I went out because I could hear some nearby. I used my ibird app on my iphone and played oriole sounds and got several territorial males coming down to check things out. They found my feeders and now I have several generations back every year nesting somewhere nearby and hitting my yard sometimes before I get the jelly feeders out but hummer feeders are out and I see them there first LOL

Thank you! I thought you were going to say, King Kong, LOL. 🦍 It's such an iconic building. I believe Empire State Building represents New York City :) Cheers!

Thanks! My first thought was actually to say King Kong😂, but I changed my mind very quickly.
It's so predictable to say King Kong, and I think for Americans, Jessica Lange is more synonym for Empire State Building than King Kong😊

Btw, my wife has been to ESB in 2004 before she meet me, and she loved it!😍
