Jankowski's Bunting

Emberiza jankowskii

Jankowski's Bunting (Emberiza jankowskii) is a small passerine bird found in the grasslands and scrublands of eastern Asia. It is characterized by its distinctive black and white plumage with streaks of chestnut on the flanks. This bunting is known for its melodious and varied song, often delivered from a prominent perch. It forages on the ground for seeds and insects, and during the breeding season, it builds its nest on the ground or low in a shrub. Jankowski's Bunting is considered vulnerable due to habitat loss and degradation.
