Description

The epaulet oriole (Icterus cayanensis) is a species of bird in the family Icteridae. The moriche oriole, formerly considered a distinct species (I. chrysocephalus) is now placed herein as a subspecies. The variable oriole, (I. pyrrhopterus), was formerly considered conspecific, but has recently been split by the SACC. The epaulet oriole is found in Bolivia, Brazil, Colombia, Ecuador, French Guiana, Guyana, Peru, and Suriname. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist lowland forest, subtropical or tropical swamps, subtropical or tropical dry shrubland, and heavily degraded former forest.

Feeding Habits
Epaulet Oriole feeds on insects, arthropods, fruits, and nectar. It gleans prey from foliage and visits flowering trees like Erythrina. Epaulet Oriole forages mainly in the canopy but may also descend to lower levels. It forages alone or in pairs, occasionally joining mixed-species flocks.
Habitat
The habitat of epaulet Oriole is typically associated with the canopy and edges of mature primary and dense secondary forests. These birds are also found in environments with clearings that still retain large trees, along with gallery forests and swampy forest areas. Epaulet Oriole is known to occupy areas with abundant tree cover and may frequent groves of specific palm trees in marshy regions. They also adapt to human-altered landscapes, sometimes being spotted in parks and gardens.
