The Redstart is as active and jaunty as a butterfly, and 

 its life seems a continuous play-spell. Whether dancing about 

 on a limb or flitting from bough to bough, its every movement 

 is grace itself. The orange and. black of its plumage contrasts 

 perfectly with the green leaves of the trees; and its musical 

 song, much like that of the Yellow Warbler, forms a fitting 

 accompaniment to its happy life.
