Where to spot
Circumpolar, breeding in Arctic and subarctic tundra; winters in open agricultural fields, coastlines, and grasslands across temperate regions.
How to spot
Look for them foraging on the ground in open, often windswept areas. Their bold black and white pattern in flight is unmistakable. Listen for their characteristic musical calls, often described as 'tew' or 'tew-tew-tew'.
When to spot
Most easily observed in winter when they are found in large, active flocks in open country, making them more visible.

Snow Buntings are among the most northerly breeding passerines in the world, often nesting in rocky crevices and surviving extremely harsh conditions, sometimes even at the edge of permanent ice.
