Buntings are a group of mainly European passerine birds of the family Emberizidae.
There are a few species named as "buntings" which are now classed in the cardinal family.

 Rustic Bunting - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Rustic Bunting, Emberiza rustica, is a passerine bird in the bunting family Emberizidae, a group now separated by most modern authors from the finches, Fringillidae.
This bird is similar in size to a Reed Bunting.
She resembles a female Reed Bunting, but has the reddish flank streaks, a chestnut nape and a pink, not grey, lower mandible.

 OSME - Rustic Bunting in Jordan
It was clearly a bunting and remained feeding on the ground for 1-2 minutes before flying to the lower branches of another tree.
Compared to Reed Bunting, the bill appeared long and somewhat pointed, and the tail was relatively short.
Rustic Bunting breeds from northern Scandinavia to Kamchatka, wintering mainly in Japan, Korea and China.

Rustic Buntings are casual spring vagrants to the Pribilofs, typically showing up every four years.
Adult male Rustic Buntings are unmistakable, dressed in rich rufous upperparts and their dramatic white and fl facial pattern.
Rustic Buntings do show white in the outer tail feathers in flight, so do not simply dismiss any flighty white-tailed passerine as a Lapland Longspur.

 THE DOUBLE-SCRATCH AS A TAXONOMIC CHARACTER IN THE HOLARCTIC EMBERIZINAE
The Crested Bunting (Melophus lathami) differs from species of the genus Emberiza in that the male has a distinct crest (although an incipient crest is present in the Rustic Bunting (E. rustica), and a fl plumage with brown wings.
The notion of a common ancestry of longspurs and Old World buntings could be further argued with reference to the close similarity between the Lapland Longspur as the present Eurasian longspur, and the buntings of the Little Bunting (E. pusilla) Reed Bunting (E. schoeniclus)--Rustic Bunting (E. rustica) subgroup.
It is suggested that the double-scratch is associated with hopping locomotion and may be lost by birds that walk; and that the Old World buntings have evolved via a terrestrial walking form similar to the longspurs, and in the process have lost, and failed to re-evolve, the double-scratch mode of feeding.

 Sandgrouse - Rustic Bunting in Turkey
Despite this the specimen was mislabelled as Pine Bunting E.
It was admitted by Kasparek (1990, 1992) on the basis of two untraced specimens obtained by T. Robson between 1861 and 1871 in the Istanbul area as well as an immature male collected by Schrader at Mersin, Içel province on 12 December (between 1882 and 1884).
Robson sent an immature female taken at Büyükdere on 24 October 1871 to Dresser (1871) who reidentified the skin as a Rustic Bunting and another, unattributable to year, was apparently shot to the north of the city on 14 February (Kasparek 1990).

 Attu 1998: Off the Charts
The most extraordinary of these was a Yellow-throated Bunting, discovered early in the third week -- a striking adult male, well seen by all participants, and even by a Coast Guard corpsman.
But the Yellow-throated Bunting was a bird no one dreamed of seeing on Attu, as it is a short-distance migrant whose breeding range is not close at all.
The Yellow-throated Bunting was but the highlight of the best migration of Asiatic species (over 40, with unprecedented numbers of individuals) we have witnessed on Attu in over twenty years.

At midday on 9 December 1999, a large mixed flock of finches and buntings was feeding in a field near the edge of Aammiq marsh.
Pine Bunting is a scarce but regular winter visitor to northern Israel, where it prefers higher altitudes than the majority of Yellowhammers that winter there (Shirihai 1996).
Personal observations suggest Yellowhammer is more abundant in Lebanon than northern Israel, and as Pine Bunting associates with this species, this new record appears unsurprising, and further observations may prove this species to be as regular as in Israel.

 Emberiza pusilla   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
The Little Bunting is one of the few buntings which doesn't acquire strikingly bright colours - even in the breeding season.
Little Buntings are not widespread, even in the parts of northern Scandinavia where they breed, but they can be locally numerous at specific sites such as Luspebryggan in Sweden and Lake Toranki at Kuusamo in Finland.
They are usually found in areas where birches and willows reach a variety of heights, especially on the edges of lakes and rivers.
