Brabant Netherlands - female Common Redstart ? (1 Viewer)

[Bertus]

This morning. Heathland with many scattered small and some big trees. Partly wet. They say Redstart would be shy. Not this one, came looking at me and calling a rising 'weet, weet', as long as I was there, searching for another, different bird. Later on I found the male as well, that is easier to ID. Is this indeed a female CR ? Tnx for help

Yes. Black redstart has upper- and underparts almost equally dark - and greyer; and would be in different habitat.

Tnx Butty, that is the next one I hope to find....
