Just not sure if this is a sparrow. Can't quite work out if it is a Dunnock?

I agree with Lou, definitely a male reed bunting.

I was about to say the same...the "moustache" is distinctive. We often get a few mixed in with sparrows in our garden, not seen any this year yet though, and will probably get a lot less when they build houses on the fields at the bottom of our road!
