May 20, 2024 - Brown-rumped Bunting (Emberiza affinis) Found in a spotty range across central Africa, these buntings live in woodlands and cultivated areas. They eat invertebrates and probably seeds, foraging on the ground alone or in pairs. Little is known about their breeding behavior, though they are thought to nest in cavities in termite nests and lay clutches of three or four eggs in captivity.

Not an ask. Just FYI. Are you familiar with Star Trek Lower Decks? After 4 seasons, they finally identified Dr. Migleemo's species by name. He's a human sized bipedal bird. His species is called Klowahkans. Sound it out. The joke writes itself, those clever Lower Decks writers. Go look up Dr. Migleemo, and Dr. T'Ana. She's a cat-lady. Have a good weekend!

Hahah, Ive not seen the show yet.

February 18, 2024 - Rufous-backed Bunting or Jankowski's Bunting (Emberiza jankowskii) These buntings are found in grassy steppes and low hills of northeastern China and may be extinct in their former range in parts of China, North Korea, and southeastern Russia. Foraging mainly on the ground, they feed on fallen grain, seeds, and grasshoppers and other invertebrates. Breeding in scattered colonies, pairs build nests on the ground from dry grasses and horsehair. Females incubate clutches of four to seven eggs alone, but both parents feed the chicks. They are classified as endangered by the IUCN due to rapid population declines probably caused by habitat loss from farming, ranching, and forestry.
