    FEMALE Eastern Black Redstart - Isle of Wight UK

    Opinions are required with this specific bird as everyone who has watched it agrees that it's behaviour is exactly as for Black Redstart, ie very strong affinity to buildings and concrete even when there is thick vegetation nearby, happy to be out in the open, not particularly worried about...

    Redstart? Bird song, Scotland

    Hello all, I heard this song for a while, in an open mixed broadleaf woodland (and adjacent to farmland) in East Scotland, in early July. Audio recording attached. Bird singing high in the tree, at 0:09, 0:19 and 0:30 and each verse is slightly different and last for only 1 or 2 seconds. Is...

    American redstart - female

    As with so many bird species, the male is the more colorful one - though the female redstart may be grey, the flashes of yellow still make them striking

    American redstart - male

    The lovely orange and black colors of the American redstart really stand out in the dark pine forest. Unfortunately as they spend much of the time lurking around in the dark forests, you sometimes need to crank the ISO up to get them!

    Redstart (first year)

    This male Redstart in our garden is in his first year because he has not got his typical dark colour. This does not keep him from singing all day long. Obviously, he has not found a parter, and so he's very busy displaying his rich, young voice.
