The Rustic Bunting found yesterday was seen again thismorning between 0730 and 0830.

It was seen close to Yin Kong Village on an area of burnt ground just to the left of the path that begins to the left of the rubbish station.

The bird is a first winter male and looks to be in very good condition.

It will of course be up to the records committee to decide if it is a wild bird or not.

Cheers
