and we need your help naming them!
The Zoo is partnering with the Governor of Maryland, Wes Moore, to name the hatchlings, which represent two different species of oriole: the Baltimore oriole and the orchard oriole. After the public decides on the names of the seven orchard oriole chicks, the Zoo will reveal the winning names as well as the names the Governor has chosen for the three Baltimore oriole chicks.
Hatched at the Zoos newly reopened Bird House, these oriole chicks represent a major conservation win. This marks the first time orchard orioles have ever successfully bred in human care.
