Description
The Black-cowled Oriole is found over the Caribbean slope of Middle America, from southern Mexico to western Panama. It occupies humid forest edges, riparian forest, old second-growth forest, banana plantations, and palm groves in open country.
Unlike other North American birds the Oriole's nest is suspended like a basketball net from a high-up branch.
In the distance a Bronzed Cowbird waits for the Black-cowled Oriole female to leave her nest. Like all cowbirds, this bird is an obligate brood parasite; that lays its eggs in the nests of other birds. Then the young cowbird is fed by the host parents at the expense of their own young.

The cowbirds are lucky that the other birds accept babies that are obviously not theirs. Well done!
