House Buntings are a sedentary species found almost exclusively
in north-western Africa. Their range extends from Morocco in the
North to Mali in the South and eastward to Chad.
In Europe House Buntings have only started to appear. There are
only a few sightings from Gibraltar and Malaga, in southern Spain,
yet.
In nature House Buntings are specialists for arid habitats.
However, they are very comfortable being around humans and their
edifices, freely entering and nesting in houses, shops and other
enclosed structures with suitable entrances, while naturally
they nest in crags and on rock ledges.
