Here is an image of a black redstart (female). She had two broods this year and two broods last year. I am reasonably confident that she was either the parent of the 2020 brood or a chick from the same breeding site that year. Her behaviour is unique. She is still in Manchester and her partner seems to drop in every few weeks. I have spent every day with her since May except for one day when I had 'man flu' :-( . I have uploaded an image of the bird's male partner with a much longer narrative should you be interested. I have applied a small compositional crop to get the image level. Thankyou.
