American Redstart, Central Quabbin, June 7, 2010
I first found this nest when the female was just starting to work on it. I returned to it today to find both the male a female bringing food to the nest to some very freshly hatched young. At times the female would sit back on the nest and the male would deliver food to her and she would then move to the edge of the nest and feed the young. Other times she would move away and the male would feed the young directly. While watching the activity at the nest I had a feel something was watching me and I turned to find a Bobcat standing about 40 feet away from me. More about that on my other blog.
