🦉 Hybrid of The yellowhammer (Emberiza citrinella) and The pine bunting (Emberiza leucocephalos)
The last series of photos of this unusual bird.
However, not our last meeting. The next year, in the same place, I met her again! Or him... I do not know what sex this bird is, since it is a hybrid, and the plumage is non-standard for these two species.
Wait a minute though! Judging by the fact that the bird was sitting on a branch and singing a song, we can say that this is a male. And by the way, this bird sang a song of an yellowhammer (common bunting).
Как только природа разнообразит животный мир. Часто очень трудно определить какой вид птиц на фото.
Hybrid bird? Did this occur naturally? What a beautiful bird.
A beautiful bird! Are there many different hybrid birds?
There is one bird in this episode. But in general, hybrids are very rare.
