I didn't see it in the Mail, but saw the story in a Daily Express on the train + didn't mention it was fairly common on east coast- just mentioned north Scotland as UK range- which would be breeding birds.
There was a black and white photo which clearly wasn't a Snow bunting or indeed Chaffinch but from the monochrome looked like a male Red-headed Bunting in breeding plumage!!
