Reed Bunting
The Reed Bunting is a sparrow-sized but slimmer and with a long, deeply notched tail. The male has a black head, white collar and a drooping “moustache”. Females and winter males are browner and have a streaked head. In flight the tail looks black with broad, white edges.
The Reed Bunting breeds across Europe and much of temperate and northern Asia. Most birds migrate south in winter but those in the milder south and west of the range are resident. It is common in reedbeds and also breeds in drier open areas such as moorland and farmland.
