Below is another photo showing more parts of the breast. I hope this may help experts like you to give me the answer Thanks! « Last Edit: Nov 17th, 2005, 9:16pm by Lynx » Logged Welcome to Lynx Aviary http://www.9014316.com/birds.htm Paul Leader BBS Member BBS Senior Member     Posts: 83 Re: Chestnut Bunting 栗(巫鳥) I « Reply #4 on: Nov 17th, 2005, 9:11am » Quote Modify I agree that these are actually Yellow-breasted Buntings; the bill is too large, the head pattern too well marked, there is obvious white in the tail (which Chestnut never shows) and the median coverts show very pale tips (rufous in Chestnut Bunting).
