Orchard Oriole in Dripping Springs, TX

This morning I saw an unfamiliar bird flitting around the oak trees outside the 2nd story window of my home office. I ran for my camera, got a few decent pics, and then spent 2 hours googling red-breasted black birds. I finally saw a photo labeled Orchard Oriole. Bingo! This would be an adult male. I don't think I've ever seen one before. How cool is that.
