Male American Redstart (Setophaga ruticilla) - Montrose Point Bird Sanctuary - Lincoln Park, Chicago Park District, Chicago, IL - 10 May 2014
In Cincinatti, Ohio for a few days. I'd forgotten how handy my little toy 400mm is. Time to fall in love with a shorter lens again.
Unclear if this is a fall male or adult female. I went with fall male because of the orange in the flanks and lack of overall "drabness"

Took a break from working on vacation pics to see if I could find some new birds in Confederation Park. There are lots of warbler types going through there right now and I've been lacking in the warbler department. I may have got about five new birds to add to my list today. This guy is one of them.
Ran into Eddy Matuod down there and he was a lot of help in finding these birds.

One of a pair, the stunning male
landed on a branch right in front of me, poked his tongue out and flew off before I could get a shot. Grrrrrrr!!!!!

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.

It was a frustrating day shooting warblers...I heard them all around me but they did NOT want their pictures taken. The gorgeous male magnolia warbler was mocking me as he dove in and out of the firs, and these redstarts never cleared the branches. They were catching bugs, much like cedar waxwings and yellow warblers, by darting in and out of the bushes over the pond. This is the only half decent shot I got of the male, just as someone unleashed their dog to go splashing into the water....

Certainly one of the most spectacular warblers. This male was particularly well-behaved, moving relatively slowly for this notoriously hyperactive species and fanning its tail repeatedly. Frontera Audubon Center, Weslaco, Texas
So, Irving is a big oil and lumber company out east. They have a pretty attrocious environmental record over the years. In Saint John, New Brunswick, they have a beautiful piece of land they have designated a nature park. It really is beautiful, and it has many species of birds live or pass through there. I had a pretty dirty feeling going to visit, since I can't help but feel the company has pulled off some "Greenwashing" with this (and other environmental publicity moves.) Still, other than the green version of the Irving logo everywhere, you'd never know it was anything other than a great place to hike and take photos. Did I mention it was free? (Except is it free if it involves implicitly supporting a company like that?) Anyways, this is a beautiful bird I saw there. She could be one of the most lovely warblers I have ever seen!
