just did a side by side... nope not a match.

thanks for trying. And resin gone for 7 days. Where's Old Ned?

Think you're partially right Nanny. I think Juvie American Redstart. In my peterson book: "Like female but tinted orange."

I don't know it is sure matching the Redstart except for the orange... maybe a juvie male.. or just the lighting... Ohhhhh OldNed....yoooohhoooo!

Hey, two of us put together almost make ONE Resin!

Your confidence is wonderful. That birds adorable!

Isn't he? And you know, I found him completely by accident. I was following a hummingbird into the tree when this guy flew exactly to the spot where the HB was sitting, thereby chasing him off. It's like he WANTED to get his picture taken. I snapped off these few, then my batteries went dead. When I came back with fresh batteries, he was gone.

It is a juvie male American Redstart

Yep

Yay Old Ned!

Thanks

Yep, American Redstart, tho' I'd say a one-year old immature male (hatched 2007), rather than a juvenile from this summer.

Resin

Thanks Resin! Welcome Back.
