I don't know of any legends associated with that bird. It's just that the oriole sometimes start their call when its still dark and I wonder if they could see or sense beyond our spectrum the coming of the sun. But there's a theory that birds, usually with reference to migratory birds, have internal compasses, that they can somehow sense magnetic field/lines of the earth.Ravenblacknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5462814069356368476.post-12534094774513686152012-06-20T10:15:05.957+08:002012-06-20T10:15:05.957+08:00I do like this...clean, simple, and orioles...one ...I do like this...clean, simple, and orioles...one of my favourites, for sure.
