Black-vented Oriole
Kingsville, Texas
20 July 1989

This was the 2nd Texas (and U.S.) record of Black-vented Oriole. This bird stayed for 3 and a half months and was seen by anyone who wanted to go to Kingsville to see it. There are now (2012) 4 records in Texas. I am posting 3 shots of this bird. One of my photos is on the Texas Bird Records Committee Website at:
