The Reed Bunting (emberiza schoeniclus )
One of the more common buntings. I managed to get this little fella singing his heart out obviously trying to attract the attention of a local lady. Not the most melodic of songs but he was doing his best to make up for that by turning up the volume. !!
Hope you like him.
Grateful and appreciative thanks for all the c/c's given to the Wren and particular thanks to Annette 38 for her UA.
