Détails de l'observation

In Utxesa, the Whiterby subspecies of Emberiza schoeniclus (Reed Bunting) can be found. In January, this subspecies exhibits distinctive physical characteristics, particularly notable in its bill structure. The bill tends to be relatively fine and pointed, which is a characteristic feature helping to distinguish this subspecies. During winter months like January, the plumage appears more subdued, with males showing less pronounced black head markings than in breeding season, and the bill itself typically appears dark or blackish. The overall appearance in January reflects the non-breeding plumage, with brownish streaking on the upperparts and paler underparts with darker streaking on the flanks.
