Re: Female Redstart
It's been the subject of some debate, but does match the pics of a female Redstart in my Collins.
If anyone has an alternative ID, please suggest away. I've asked the BTO for a definitive ID but no response yet.See more at www.andyleslie.com and www.facebook.com/AndyLesliePhotography, not to mention https://www.flickr.com/photos/andylesliephotography/

Re: Female Redstart
I would say Wheatear, but I may be wrong though? Lol

PS I have only ever seen one female Redstart. But loads of Males. I am going by the shape of the head.Comment

Re: Female Redstart
Definitely female Wheatear, the bill is too heavy for a Redstart, the eye too large and the wing markings too distinct.
This was taken last week:
