When to put out orioles feeders in Michigan?

In Michigan, it's best to put out oriole feeders in mid to late April, as this is when the birds typically return from their migration. Monitoring local temperatures is also important; feeders should be ready by the time the weather starts to warm up and fruit trees bloom, typically around the first week of May. Ensure that your feeders are filled with a sugar-water solution and, if desired, orange halves or grape jelly to attract the orioles.
