馃 The yellowhammer (Emberiza citrinella)

馃摎 Emberiza embritz (Old German) bunting
馃摎 citrinella citrine (lat.) yellow; citrinella (Italian) yellow bird

I see this male in the 1 photo every year in the same place. Literally, every year he flies to the ravine and sits on the nearest trees, sings songs in the spring.

Unfortunately, apart from him, I did not see other birds of this species there.
But on the other side of the river there are such birds.

In the spring, often in the meadow in the bushes I hear the voices of these birds here. Yes, the bushes are their favorite place. And I noticed one feature, when danger arises, the bird does not try to fly up from the bushes to another place. And she slowly, as if through a back door, is trying to get away without flying out of the bushes.

The bird is predominantly granivorous, so it can arrive early in the spring and fly away late in the spring. Although in different regions, namely in warm ones, it can remain for the winter.
