Bird Identification

This little guy flew in my store and hung out for about 20 minutes. Can anyone tell me what kind of bird he is?

Thanks for any help.

Possibly a starling pair? These birds usually breed earlier and do build their nests in such places. Very aggressive birds.

Your username indicates you are in Iowa; is that where you saw this bird? It does resemble a 1st-year male Orchard Oriole.

ANY READERS, DISREGARD THIS POST. I subsequently put this in the bird watching forum where it belongs. If I can delete this post, I have not figured out how.

The second photo I saw of this bird looked really familiar. I think it is a cardinal bird. Some times I saw this bird, my friends told me it was a cardinal. This picture looks pretty good. Where did you take it? Local or a place of interest? By the way, if I want a bird like this, can you show me how to get it?
