Little Bunting

Little Bunting

 

This is the third time I have seen this bird but would like to add that our bird records in Borneo leave a lot to be desired.  I previously saw the Little Bunting Emberiza pusilla on Lankayan Island and Tiga Island, both off Sabah.  On my recent trip to another island, Maratua Island off East Kalimantan, I got lucky with this photo of this lone bird.  The literature says it breeds in North Eurasia so I am quite impressed that it got here.
