European Bunting is a collective term for two species of passerine birds, the YELLOWHAMMER and the Ortolan. The YELLOWHAMMER is a medium-sized bird with a bright yellow head and chestnut-brown back, while the Ortolan is a small bird with a grey-brown back and yellowish-white underparts. Both species are found in Europe, and their song is often heard in summer. They are both popular game birds, and their feathers are used to make traditional European bunting.
