The contrast of this bird usually causes my auto-focus to go haywire... I got lucky on this one. A male American Redstart with its tail fanned out... and in focus. Yeah! :-)

The American redstart (Setophaga ruticilla) is a New World warbler. It is unrelated to the Old World redstarts. It derives its name from the male's red tail, start being an old word for tail.

The breeding males are unmistakable, jet black above apart from large orange-red patches on their wings and tails. Their breast sides are also orange, with the rest of their underparts colored white. In their other plumages, American redstarts display green in their upperparts, along with black central tails and grey heads. The orange patches of the breeding males are replaced by yellow in the plumages of the females and young birds.

Finally a turn in the weather and the beautiful morning brought many birds. The cool breeze and clear air made it feel like fall. The little American Redstart was enjoying the morning also.

Among the three most common species in lowlands of New England. All photographed near the Old North Bridge, Concord, Mass, I find redstarts particularly challenging to photograph well,

they are always on the move.

American Redstart Female

Taken in Port Royal, Norfolk County, Ontario, Canada.

During fall migration an American Redstart showed up in my backyard, and also in my neighbour's. I only saw her the one day, and she was elusive as she searched the tree branches for insects. That week she was sharing this resource - our trees - with Yellow Warblers, Yellow-rumped Warblers, Wilson's Warblers, Cedar Waxwings, American Robins, various sparrows, and at least one Downy Woodpecker, Red-breasted Nuthatch, and Least Flycatcher. Within a week they were gone. Parting in September is always bittersweet; I enjoy spring migration much more, knowing they'll be building nests and singing in the weeks to come.

 

Redstarts are infrequent visitors to our area; this is the first time I've had one in my viewfinder. Not too familiar with the species, so I hope I've got it right - that this is a female, not a juvenile. I always welcome correction when I make a mistake!

I originally found this bird at the East Wash but it eventually left the area before I could get a nice picture. My friend Joachim Gonzalez soon joined me and we listened for the sounds of PYNU as it was associating with them. This led us to Lands End where we got great looks and pictures of the bird!

I believe this is a type of Dogwood. It was quite full of bugs and the warblers were searching the leaves and berries for bugs. I was also but after the birds had moved on.

Good morning everyone and I hope you had a nice weekend. I'm pleased to present today a few pics of another newbie for yours truly. Being a female American Redstart (Setophaga ruticilla). A member of the Warbler family that typically prefers interior woodlands as a habitat.

 

Unfortunately the only male I saw was an immature, which was probably this female's mate, but the pics of it weren't decent enough to post.

 

As for these photos, all were taken at a very long distance for this tiny bird so I had to do some serious cropping. Two other photos of the same bird can be found in the comment section and my stream.

 

Thank you for stopping by...and I hope you have a truly great day and week.

There is nothing so thrilling as looking out your window & realizing there is a totally new kind of bird in your fountain. She was only there for a minute, no telling how long before I saw her. The males are really colorful so hopefully I'll see that too.

This female Redstart was collecting spider web for her nest. I got to watch her keeping busy at this task for quite a while.

Birders often suffer from "warbler neck" -- the pain caused by tipping your head way back to try to see little birds who often prefer the tops of trees. But there was no problem with following this male American Redstart. It was in the top of a willow tree, but the tree was short, and I was up on a road bridge that was several feet above it, looking down. The redstart was fast and erratic, leaping from branch to twig, successfully hunting for insects.

American Redstart - male / Candelita Norteña - macho

A female American Redstart (Setophaga ruticilla) stops for a drink from our bird bath. Warblers like this redstart visit our yard to find insects among the trees and shrubs. They do not get food from our bird feeders like other birds, so a good bird bath provides a great way to observe them out in the open. Photographed on October 13, 2020 in Coconut Creek, Florida.
