Waxwing (or Redwing) blackbird is what we called them in California. Are they the same on the East Coast?

Redwing blackbird, here. Apparently the red stripe is usually wider, but I did find some photos that look like this one.

So... not an oriole.

That was my first guess. Redwing blackbird was my second.

The Oriole I see most often has a lot more yellow than that, and the dark part isn't as black/glossy.
