what is it?

The yellow-browed bunting ( Emberiza chrysophrys ) is a passerine bird in the bunting family ( Emberizidae ), a group now separated by most modern taxonomists from the finches (Fringillidae). The genus name Emberiza is from Old German Embritz , a bunting. The specific chrysophrys is from Ancient Greek khrusophrus , "golden-browed".
