Related: About this forumMale American redstart warbler along the Appalachian Trail this morning
I walked a few miles on the AT in Jefferson National Forest, VA, looking for birds this morning. The redstart was a particularly difficult bird to photograph in the dense canopy.

(37,643 posts)7. There was a female redstart in our back yard a few years ago ...
the female's coloration is similar to the male's, but with yellow in place of red-orange. I had trouble IDing her because it would have never have occurred to me to look up "redstart" to find a black-and-yellow bird!
