They look like birds that use my hummingbird feeders and the only ones I know that do that are Orioles. They just have a dull yellow and are perhaps female or juveniles. Could be Orchard Oriole, Bullucks or maybe Scotts.

WordPress has been giving me fits for over a month, I apologize.
The photo was with my point and shoot, 30x cropped, so it probably can’t be enlarged much.
These birds are much bigger than orioles. I have a photo of these two running a black grackle off, so similar in shape, size and behavior, I thought they were some kind of grackle, but I found nothing with white feathers in the middle of their tails.

I thought the white was a reflection. So there is no pale yellow tinge?
