The Orchard Oriole is black and russet in the adult male, while the female is yellow-green. It searches foliage for insects, eats fruit, and migrates seasonally.
In breeding plumage, adult males have a black head and chest with russet underparts. Females are mainly yellow-green.
It searches among leaves for insects and also eats fruit and nectar. It builds a hanging pouch-shaped nest and moves between North and Central America with the seasons.
The female does most of the work, weaving a hanging pouch of long grass in about six days.
