American Redstart

[lovesbirds]

Spotted a very pretty American Redstart in our Burlington garden today.  It is the first time I have ever seen one so I identified it on the internet.  He was catching bugs in the lilac tree and appeared very comfortable preening himself for a long time in the cedar hedge.

What a nice sighting.  I have never seen one either.

Thanks, I have a few photos if i could just figure out how to get one on here.

If it's any help, I use a Flickr account (www.flikr.com) and post them there and copy the http:// address and paste in your post here.  Hope that's helpful!

Thanks Moira, I'll try that.
