Golden oriole in the figs

The figs are ready and all the birds have sent out the message. Figs at Mas del Sol, plums nearly finished, peche de vigne mostly gathered in, grapes are protected but yes the figs are delicious.

I will never get a photo of the golden oriole on them, so I googled  a picture of one.
Blackbird-sized the male has an unmistakable bright yellow body with black wings. A secretive bird which keeps to the high tree canopy, it can be heard, most often at dawn, giving its distinctive fluting whistle. It flies rather like a thrush - slightly undulating flight.
This little chap eating cherries slightly throws you, but imagine he is tucking in to figs
