Does anybody know what the name of orange and black bird is that drinks out of my humming bird feeder ?

The bird is yellow orange everywhere except the head and wings. It loves the humming bird feeder. It sings a beautiful sound. Humming birds don't mind it drinking with them !

It sounds like you have a Baltimore oriole. Besides bugs, worms, etc, they also like the necter that you feed your hummers. If you have large trees nearby look up and see if you can find something that resembles a white-colored silk bag hanging from a high branch. That would be its' nest. And it's a good chance that it has a mate. And yes, it sings a beautiful song as well. Consider yourself very lucky to have this lovely summer visitor around as their numbers have dwindled drastically over the past few years.
