An extremely rare autumn vagrant from E Siberia; recorded a few times end
Sep-Oct.
Identification:
Barely as large as rustic Bunting. Rather big head and stout bill. Straight
culmen, pink lower mandible. In summer unmistakable: bright yellow eyebrow,
(brownish-) black crown with narrow white median crown-stripe. In autumn more
like Little and Rustic Buntings but retains a tinge of yellow in eyebrow and
trace of the white crown-stripe. Flanks and breast narrowly and distinctly
streaked black.
