Cirl Bunting and Others!

 A walk around a site in Dorset produced a variety of birds of farmland and open countryside.

This Cirl Bunting certainly brightened up the morning! 
It is years since I last saw one 

This is apparently a known site for the species according to local birders.

Corn Bunting - I was pretty pleased to see this bird also as it is not a common species in Buckinghamshire these days.

Stonechat - A pair were moving around together

Meadow Pipit - A lot of these were singing over an area of open grassland. 
This one seems to be eyeing up the insects!  Note the very long hindclaws.

Whitethroat - A few were singing from patches of low vegetation.

Goldfinch - The most stunning bird of the day!
