The Corn Bunting has Red Status due to its dramatic population decline. It is our largest bunting a dull brown bird, paler underneath and streaky it is usually seen prominently on a fence post or wire strand singing its song. It nests in a large loose construction of coarse grasses, often in a scrape on the ground where it has 3 - 5 eggs. It eats seeds and invertebrates.
We briefly watched the very prominent Alpine Swift, never getting to the trig point as there was no need with it flying overhead, we beat a hasty retreat as the black clouds rolled in once more and made it back with only a few spots of rain falling on us.

Good shots of the Bunting Mike under what must have been very poor light conditions.
I will persevere - LOL. Thanks for commenting back to me about the word verification option. I'll try leaving this comment and muddling my way through what I think I'm seeing on the verification part. Love your little Corn Bunting. I have never seen one of those. The clouds gathering is an impressive shot as well.
Well done on the Alpine Swift Mike! you got a shot as well, very impressive!
Lovely shot of the Corn Bunting, you can see it was quite windy, a few ruffled feathers there! ;)
