Female Oriole with Jelly in her Beak (Dry Brush Filter)

This is probably not the most patriotically appropriate post for the Fourth of July. It's not red, white, and blue. It doesn't have a flag, or anything relating to the American Declaration of Independence. Perhaps, the closest tie in to the Fourth of July that I can come up with is the Freedom of Speech, adopted as the First Amendment to the United States Constitution in the Bill of Rights on December 15, 1791. Because of the Bill of Rights in the U. S. Constitution, which you can trace back to the Declaration of Independence on July 4, 1776, I can post a picture of an oriole (sorry, didn't have a bald eagle) with jelly in its mouth on Independence Day. Happy Independence Day everyone! Thanks for stopping by!
