Yellowhammer in snow (Emberiza citrinella)

Looked lovely, but suspect this bird was not too happy with the weather. I've never been so close to one of these.

Thanks All, and Nospringchicken, best spot I know up your way for these is Chosely drying barns - just south of Thornham on the North Norfolk Coast - well worth dropping into on a trip to Cley or Titchwell. Normally get corn bunting there too and have had Lapland. ;0)

Cheers, Martin
