Is this a Yellow-breasted Bunting?
Photographs were taken on 6th September 2015 at Mai Po.

Looks like a juvenile Yellow-breasted Bunting.
A early record for this species, nice shot!

It looks like a Yellow-breasted Bunting female.

Thank you, Ivan and John.  
The bird surprised me a bit as I haven't seen a Yellow-breasted Bunting in Mai Po before, and also all guys in that bird hide that morning were waiting for raptors, not a bunting!
