    I need some help attracting birds to my feeder.  I'm
    in an apartment on the ground level across from an
    open park, so there aren't many trees immediately
    nearby (although some riparian habitat is a few blocks
    away).  I've been using the usual mix - millet,
    sunflower, etc - and getting the usual birds - finches
    and doves.  Oh, and turkeys.  :-)
    
    I'm interested in some ideas on what species are
    available to attract - orioles? - and how to attract
    them, given my description of the habitat.  I've left
    different types of suet out, but it's gone untouched. 
    
    
    The evening sun is now falling on the feeders, and my
    bedroom is a great blind - I should be able to get
    some really great photos.  All I need is the species
    and some attractive potted plant perches.
    
    Thanks for any help!
    
    Brian
