Common reed bunting (Emberiza schoeniclus)
The common reed bunting (Emberiza schoeniclus), also known as the reed sparrow, belongs to the family of buntings (Emberizidae) and is native to Europe, North Africa, and East Asia. It is only absent from some Mediterranean islands. The reed bunting is commonly found, especially in reed and sedge habitats. In Central Europe, it is a partial migrant, as most birds leave the region in October/November and return in February and March. During winter, the reed bunting resides in North Africa.
