10/3/94 Pennington Flash, Lancs

BLACK-FACED BUNTING 1 first-winter male ex.

First-winter male Black-faced Bunting at Pennington Flash (Alan Tate http://www.aabirdpix.com/)
The first for Britain proved very elusive on the first morning of the huge twitch for it but we eventually obtained views of it feeding on seed put down in an area of cleared reeds. It went on to stay for seven weeks.
