Common redstart and Spotted flycatcher, Champgrand- France, 02/06/2023 (2 Viewers)

Any explanation on why the redstart has a brown wing? Am I correct about the spotted flycatcher?

Thanks for any help.

Pretty normal. More obvious because it's in the sun (and somewhat worn, as it would be at this time of year).
Yes. See (e.g.) the long primaries.
