Yellowhammer  (Emberiza citrinella)

Widespread and common throughout much of Europe, the yellowhammer is a resident species in the UK (present throughout the year), and has a more restricted distribution in Scotland than the rest of the British Isles (4). Some of the Scandinavian population migrate in small numbers to the British Isles during winter (5).

Seems to prefer farmland, particularly bushy areas, as well as the edges of woodlands, wooded pasture, and heaths (1).
