To put it simply, Bullock's orioles are bewitching birds if you're lucky enough to spot them.

Baltimore and Bullock's orioles are often confused for one another because of their similar colorings. In both species, males feature black on their heads and backs. A key difference is that Bullock's orioles "have a black eyeline against an orange cheek, instead of an all-black head," Bo says.
