    Buntings - Tokyo

    Interesting about the shrikes. Ive only visited Tokyo once but what I’ve seen in a few bird guides and eBird is of bull-headed shrikes being less common in the centre.

    Buntings - Tokyo

    Thank you all, I keep learning new things here. The two birds were together. I’d seen illustration and photos of female grey bunting which didn’t quite match but this illustration seems a much better fit. I agree I don’t see reed bunting here, but unsure of asiatic variations and if they’d differ.

    Buntings - Tokyo

    Chestnut-Eared sounds possible, why not Black-Faced? Not sure about exact part of Tokyo - but I think near a river if that is any help. Bull-headed shrike were seen there too, which as far as I know are more likely further out of the city than in the centre.

    Buntings - Tokyo

    Hi, 2 buntings sent from a friend in Tokyo this week. The first I think is a Grey Bunting. The second I'm a bit stumped on - female reed, black-faced? Grey Bunting? Reed / Black-Faced? not convinced. Thanks, Paul
