Snow Bunting, Fordham, 7th November 2014 © Neil Bramwell
Editors Note The attached comment from James Hanlon is relevant to this bird.
'Despite some speculation on Twitter that the bird is a
female, it appears to be a first winter male on account of the mainly white
greater (secondary) coverts but mainly dark (greater) primary coverts. Like the
last bird at Ouse Fen it appears to be a young male nivalis (Greenland/
Scandanavian race) rather than the darker (Icelandic) insulae.
