A splendid Baltimore Oriole Icterus galbula was found by Jóhann Óli Hilmarsson on the shore at Eyrarbakki
(S-Iceland), on 7 October 2003. Despite bad weather the bird could be seen again later in the day before disappearing. Next
day (8 Oct) it was found again at the same site, in excellent weather, where it showed well all day. This bird is a juvenile
male. It is part of a small influx of very rare American landbirds in Iceland (Least Flycatcher.. American Robin.. the
Oriole.. Cedar Waxwing), and surprisingly no "common" American passerines have been reported (e.g. Red-eyed Vireo,
Yellow-rumped Warbler...).
