Little Bunting

Spent a morning on Thursday at Portsdown Hill looking for the Little Bunting that had been present since Tuesday but only had a few vague flight-calling views on which I wasn't prepared to tick. Went back on Friday and after an hour or so in better weather I refound the bird in the near hedge and managed a few pics and to get another birder on it before it flew. The pics don't do it justice as it was much brighter in the field but after dipping the Scotney Lapland Buntings I was pleased to get it.
