A LITTLE BUNTING REACHES BAJA CALIFORNIA SUR

Abstract

At midday on 8 October 2008, we discovered a Little Bunting (Emberiza pusilla) at Rancho San José de Castro on the Vizcaíno Peninsula, Baja California Sur (cover photo, Figure 1). This sighting represents the first record of this Old World species from Mexico and only the third for North America south of Alaska.
