After watching the bird close every day, I can now say its a Female redstart not an SY male.  Just heard her chipping and then saw her gleaning insects off the side of my neighbors house in the sun.  When the afternoon comes she should come round to our westerly facing side and gleaning from my clapboards.  Remarkable that she is still around.  What could possibly be keeping her from joining the Smithsonian crew in Jamaica for the winter.  I had a dream that instead of migrating she overwintered in my basement...
