An American Redstart Nest

This little "Momma" Redstart (very little, usually only standing 4-5 inches tall) is looking a somewhat grumpy after we had discovered her nest. She had 3 babies underneath her, which have since flown off!

When we revisited the nest the next day, The male and the female were just returning with some food for the young, so they must be doing well.
