[Bristol-Birds] Kingsport Yard Birds

While investingating an apparent window strike (no remains found), I observed a young American Redstart and a Yellow-bellied Sapsucker. The redstart showed the plumage of a 1st spring male according to the National Geographic Complete Birds of North America. Is this a hatching year bird or a 2007 hatched bird that won't get the complete male plumage until its 2nd spring?
