Wikipedia says: “Most textbooks define a species as all the individual organisms of a natural population that generally interbreed at maturity in the wild and whose interbreeding produces fertile offspring.” Since these two types of birds produce fertile hybrid offspring, shouldn’t they be classified as the same species?

For all you birders out there. The literature seems mixed. Some say they are two species - the Bullocks Oriole and the Baltimore Oriole. Some say it is just one - the renamed ‘Northern Oriole’.
Opionios? Thanks in advance.
