Golden orioles in the fig tree

The figs are nearly ready and who loves the figs? Golden orioles who arrive each year to enjoy the figs. We know they have arrived because of their distinctive song... but trying to get a photo of this bright yellow elusive bird is not easy. Today we had two feasting but one year we had 5 all at the same time. The family were here and one of the girls said “ look at those giant canaries” 
They did not realise how special it was seeing one golden oriole, never mind 5.
We will try for a photo.
