The Reed Bunting is a sparrow-sized bird of farmland and Wetland. It is a resident in the Uk and it is estimated that there are approx 250,000 breeding pairs.
This very obliging male was photographed at RSPB Rainham Marshes in April this year.
I am semi-retired after a career in medical sciences. I now work from home doing independent research and consultancy amongst other things. One advantage of this is that I do have time to indulge my interests including birdwatching, natural history, steam trains and history particularly ancient history.
