Having seen and photographed five species of Buntings in Devon this year, I thought it would be good to add some photos here so that comparisons can be made. Two species that are  seen in Devon but rarely are  the Ortalon and Corn Bunting, both yet to be photographed. 

Here are photographs of the five Buntings most commonly encountered in Devon.
