Undisclosed Site - Mon 15 Jun

A lunchtime trip out today to look for a Corn Bunting that has been singing in an area of Somerset. Obviously due to the nature of the species in question and the fact it is a singing male in suitable habitat this sighting has been kept from the public domain. Fortunately it didn't take me too long to find the bird as I heard it singing and then located it atop a distant tree....terrible photo for proof!

After a short while it flew off and alighted in a hedge before vanishing from sight. A Somerset tick for me with the last Corn Bunting in Somerset being some fifteen or so years ago. A couple of singing Yellowhammers were also noted.
