Acerca de
El escribano cerillo (unos 27 g) es inconfundible por la brillante cabeza amarilla del macho y su canto repetitivo, descrito popularmente en inglés como 'a little bit of bread and no cheese'. Habita setos, brezales y bordes de campos en Europa y Asia occidental. Las poblaciones han disminuido seriamente por la pérdida de setos y los cambios en las prácticas agrícolas que reducen la disponibilidad de semillas en invierno. Es un ave del Libro Rojo en varios países.
