Post subject:  Corn Bunting

Its been a beautiful evening and I've just done a ttv on the wolds at Withcall. I had 19 singing Corn Buntings plus fledged young. Corn Bunting was the second commonest of the 32 species in the tetrad (after Woodpigeon) and its the highest breeding density I've come across so far. I'd be interested to hear if anyone else has come across densities like this elsewhere in Lincs.

Just as a matter of interest the number of Atlas records submitted for buntings in E Lincs is as follows, Yellowhammer 368, Reed Bunting 250, Corn Bunting 38 which gives a very crude measure of their relative abundance. (No Cirls yet but we live in hope!)
