The American Redstart is an abundant and friendly warbler that can be found in deciduous forests and forest edges. It has a fairly simple and short warble, with a fairly wide range of variability in the song. In this soundscape, they are singing nearly constantly.

This soundscape was recorded at MacGregor Point Provincial Park along the Old Shore Road Trail on May 19, 2019 using an iPhone with an Edutige EIM-001 omnidirectional microphone. This recording was done one week before the start of the annual Huron Fringe Birding Festival.

Heard in this recording are: American Redstart, Black-throated Blue Warbler, Black-throated Green Warbler, Blackpoll Warbler, Yellow Warbler, Ovenbird, Yellow-rumped (Myrtle) Warbler, Black-and-white Warbler, Common Yellowthroat, Red-eyed Vireo, American Robin, American Goldfinch, Blue Jay, Black-capped Chickadee, American Crow, and more.
