Portugal, Algarve - bright yellow bird (1 Viewer)

We were at the Sao Lonrenco lake at Quinta do Lago today and saw the bird pictured. A lady thought it was a black-headed bunting, but 1) it should not be there and 2) the black mask looks wrong compared to Collins'. Could of course be some escaped hybrid between red-headed and black-headed.

Any other suggestion?
