Wikipedia

  1. Yellow-breasted bunting

    The yellow-breasted bunting (Emberiza aureola) is a passerine bird in the bunting family Emberizidae that is found across the Boreal and East Palearctic. The genus name Emberiza is from Old German Embritz, a bunting. The specific aureola is Latin for "golden". The bird's call is a distinctive zick, and the song is a clear tru-tru, tri-tri. Until 2004, the International Union for Conservation of Nature considered the yellow-breasted bunting to be a species of least concern. Since 2004, it has been gradually upgraded to a status of Critically Endangered due to rapid drops in population sizes. It is subject to heavy hunting pressure in China, through which most specimens pass during migration.

  1. yellow-breasted bunting

    The Yellow-Breasted Bunting is a small passerine bird species in the bunting family Emberizidae. It is predominantly seed-eating and usually recognizable by its colorful plumage with bright yellow underparts, chestnut back, and white-colored wings. This bird species is migratory, breeding in northeastern Europe and across northern Asia and migrating to south Asia, the Indian subcontinent, and southeast Asia in the winter months. It is known for its melodious song and was once a common sight, but has seen a significant decline in population, leading to its listing as critically endangered.

  1. Yellow-breasted Bunting

    The Yellow-breasted Bunting is an Eurasian passerine bird in the bunting family. This bird is similar in size to a Reed Bunting, but longer-billed. The breeding male has bright yellow underparts with black flank streaks, brown upperparts, black face and throat bar, and a pink lower mandible. The female has a heavily streaked grey-brown back, and less intensely yellow underparts. She has a whitish face with dark crown, eye and cheek stripes. The juvenile is similar, but the background colour of the underparts and face is buff. The call is a distinctive zick, and the song is a clear tru-tru, tri-tri. It breeds in northeastern Europe and across northern Asia. It is migratory, wintering in southeast Asia, India, and southern China. It is a rare but regular wanderer to western Europe. The Yellow-breasted Bunting breeds in open scrubby areas, often near water, and it is very common in Siberia. It lays 4-6 eggs in a nest on the ground. Its food consists of insects when feeding young, and otherwise seeds. It was formerly classified as a Near Threatened species by the IUCN. But new research has shown it to be rarer than it was believed. Consequently, it is uplisted to Vulnerable status in 2008.
