Take another look at that sparrow......

Not every small, streaky brown bird is a sparrow. This evening a reed bunting was feeding at our bird table - they invariably seem to arrive towards the end of winter. This male is starting to acquire its summer plumage when it will have a lovely black head and a white collar. It was filmed at Wilstone Reservoir a couple of miles from my home exactly a year ago. Not a great vocalist but top marks for enthusiasm and persistence......!
