Cirl Bunting, a species whose presence in the UK was saved by an RSPB project involving local farmers, volunteers etc. Once a common bird across the south of the country, it survived on a small area of the south coast of #Devon ; read about the project here:

These are fabulous birds and thanks to the RSPB, local landowners, farmers and volunteers they are making a tremendous comeback after nearly dying out in this country. #CirlBunting #EmberizaCirlus #Conservation #UKBirding #Birding #wildlife

A little outing to #Paignton this morning. The Yellow-browed Warbler was good to see at Clennon Valley as were the Cirl Bunting at Broadsands car park. Good to see the crew from Plymouth too.
