Zoology

Now let's move on to zoology, where the name Oriolo is used to describe several birds belonging to the Oriolid family. First of all, there's Bullock's Oriole, which is named after its discoverer, William Bullock, an English naturalist. This bird has a length of about 25 centimeters, yellow-green and black feathers, and it can be found in the tropical zones of South America.

But Oriole is not just one! There is also the Western Oriole, which inhabits forests in some areas of Africa, and the Black Oriole, which has a black plumage and a distinctive flute-like song. The latter can be found in parts of Europe, Asia, and Africa.
