CORN BUNTING // MILIARIA CALANDRA (17cm)
A FRIEND OF MINE! This is the fourth year of seeing this same bird, sits in the same spot, when back from its winter flock, moves to the same spots, very approachable, feel I know him personally, and do wonder who will drop first, him or me.! Speaking to a senior life time birder, he said, that when they went out doing daily counts years ago, they never bothered about the corn bunting as there was hundreds of them, on every field, now this is only only one I see every year, the decline is dramatic, and again due to changes in farming practice. But so love this bird! its song is amazing.
