What's the difference?

I had an interesting comment about the difference between the song of the corn bunting and the yellowhammer. This chap's Beverley cornbunting had got a bit mixed up! See the comment on my last corn bunting blog. So I thought I'd put a video (for the very first time it has taken me ages) of both so you can hear the different songs.

Here's the corn bunting:

It's amazing just how similar they are. Happy birding!
