Are you sure that it is an oncidium? I am almost certain that the flowers look like Cymbidium flowers!
Very nice yellow by the way!!

Congrats on your first bloom!

Here's a fun Wiki-link for you to give you a bigger cymbidium species picture....

Cymbidium - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

So many crosses out there that makes precise ID from a photo difficult.
It's helpful to know if that's a "mini" or a standard, for example.
Another good place to see flower images is here;

Internet Orchid Species Photo Encyclopedia

You can search for your orchid alphabetically.
There's usually some nice culture notes about the orchids as well.

Nice cym you have there. ENJOY and happy orchiding!
