Info. Snow buntings

The birds you see in this wintry image are snow buntings, sometimes referred to as 'snowflakes' because of the distinct white in their wings. These medium-sized Arctic specialists love the cold and travel further north than other passerine birds. Only ravens can be found north of snow buntings.
