Size slightly larger than Yellow-breasted Bunting, heavier body and larger bill. No white on the tail. I think this is a Black-headed Bunting female (or Red-headed, or juvenile). Would anyone like to comment. Apologies for the picture quality, taken with an ordinary digital camera.   « Last Edit: Nov 6th, 2005, 7:27am by Koel_Ko » Logged Mike Kilburn Committee Member BBS God     Posts: 334 Re: Black-headed Bunting? « Reply #1 on: Nov 3rd, 2005, 9:52am » Quote Modify Looks good to me.   The bottom photo hints at a dark hood, and slight contrast between the throat and greyer cheeks which to me suggests Black-headed rather than Red-headed, but I would be interested to hear other views.   Cheers   Mike K Logged Mike Kilburn Vice Chairman Chairman - ConservationCommittee HKBWS Paul Leader BBS Member BBS Senior Member     Posts: 83 Re: Black-headed Bunting? « Reply #2 on: Nov 3rd, 2005, 4:54pm » Quote Modify I agree, additional photos sent to me by Graham Talbot show the classic crown pattern with streaking extending onto the forecrown (unstreaked forecrown in Red-headed).
