Default Yellow backed bird

Opened the front door just now and startled a bird on the lawn opposite.

Flew AWAY from me and I could only see its back. Blackbird size, dark wings,
but a very vivid yellow back.

Looked in the bird book and the nearest I could see was the Golden Oriole
but reading its habit I don't see how it could be.

South East Coast Isle of Wight

Any suggestions?

Mike
