Hi Jonny, I have several video clips of the Flamborough Song Sparrow. This is probably the best with it singing.
Which you are welcome to use.

These 3 Bewick's Swans were a pleasant surprise on my local patch at North Cave Wetlands this morning, when they flew onto Crosslands Lake. They spent just under an hour on the reserve as they swam, fed and preened before eventually flying off South.
