Hi Owen,
Welcome to birding and to the China pages of BirdForum, some of the finest on this website! East Asian buntings are tough, and there is no shame at all in making mistakes - all of us, no matter how long we have been birding, misidentify birds - part of the challenge!
We have very few active birders in NE China, so I am very much looking forward to hearing about what you see. And please feel free to post any photos of birds the identification of which you are unsure - the folk on here are extremely helpful and knowledgeable (Tom is a case in point!)
Cheers, Terry
