Kozlova's Bunting is a small bird about 16 centimeters long. It lives only on the high plateaus of Tibet and hides well among grass and low bushes.
Kozlova's Bunting differs from other buntings by its adaptation to cold highlands and the dull coloration of females. It helps spread plant seeds and serves as food for highland predators.
