Papa and Mama Redstart

Description

We have a nesting box on the balcony and this year the Common Redstarts (Phoenicurus phoenicurus) were faster then the Blue Tits and moved in. At the moment they're feeding the youngs. Mama and Papa Redstart are really busy catching all kinds of insects. I caught them while they took a short break. :giggle:
Papa Redstart is on the left. Of course he's the more colourful one and he's quite bold. Mama Redstart is on the right. She's not that flashy beside the red tail.

It's amazing that she's only using one foot to hold onto the nesting box. :wow:
