I hope you run across one if you haven't already seen one. Some of them appear to be dark, almost like a Blackbird, until you get a good look.

Due to his mid-air antics it is obvious the Orchard Oriole was fantasizing about being a Barred Owl and pouncing on an unsuspecting Sharp-shinned Hawk.  :)
