American Redstart (1st spring male)

Central Park, NYC

Setophaga ruticilla

Note the scattered black feathers on the face and breast. Young male American Redstarts look similar to females for about a year. These gray and yellow males will try to attract a mate, and although some are successful, most do not breed until they are two years old.
