This small bird has been perplexing passers by for a few months at Jericho park. ID would be most appreciated.
Seen between February-May this year, at least.
Best guess would be a puffy wintering snow bunting, with its blackish wings and mottled head and body. On the other hand, this area is heavily trafficked by eBirders, and the last time a snow bunting was reported was 2017, although it was around the same time of year.
