درسة منزلية (House bunting ، (الاسم العلمي: Emberiza sahari)) هي من الجواثم لفصيلة الدرسات.

House bunting (Emberiza sahari) south of Tunisia

تعيش الدرسة المنزلية في البلاد الجافة شمال غرب أفريقيا من جنوب المغرب إلى مالي شرق إلى تشاد.[2] تتكاثر حول المساكن البشرية، وتضع من بضتان إلى اربع بيضات في حفر بالجدار أو المباني المحيطة. وتتغذا على البذور والحبوب ، وعندما تغذي صغارها تتغذا على الحشرات.

It is 14 cm long, similar in size to the striolated bunting and smaller than the rock bunting. The breeding male has a sandy orange-brown body and a grey head slightly dark-streaked but without the white supercilium that the striolated bunting has. The female's head has a brown tint to the grey, and more diffused streaking.

The house bunting has recently been split from the closely related striolated bunting,[3][4] of which it used to be treated as a subspecies, Emberiza striolata sahari. The striolated bunting has stronger facial striping and a paler belly than the house bunting.[2]

The incubation period of the clutch of three eggs is 12–14 days.[2]

Eggs of Emberiza sahari MHNT

The song, given from a perch, is similar to but weaker than that of the common chaffinch.

In Morocco, the species is traditionally regarded as sacred, and has become very tame, freely entering and feeding inside houses, shops and mosques.[5]
