- Hi, I'll reivew this. FunkMonk (talk) 22:09, 16 October 2015 (UTC)
- This video is of much better quality than the one currently in the article: [1]
- Replaced. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 09:13, 17 October 2015 (UTC)
- "The whinchat is a sort-tailed bird" Short I assume?
- "has blackish face mask" Missing a?
- "Its main call is a hue-tac-tac" Maybe add "is described as a"?
- "to a maximum recorded of just over five years" Wild or captive?
- Added. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 09:31, 17 October 2015 (UTC)
- With such a large range, I'd assume some subspecies are recognised or have been proposed?
- Apparently not. Added. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 09:31, 17 October 2015 (UTC)
- Seems the supercilium could be mentioned in the intro?
- Added. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 09:13, 17 October 2015 (UTC)
- "The whinchat is a solitary species" Only the intro states this.
- Added. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 09:13, 17 October 2015 (UTC)

Wisht as a winnard
[edit]To what does this Cornish phrase refer? the whinchat bird, see the BBC website referenced below. Or the Redwing, see List of Cornish dialect words, or a Peregrine Falcon, as in Birds of Cornwall the North Cornwall paragraph. I suspect it's the whinchat.[1]BeckenhamBear (talk) 09:05, 6 November 2016 (UTC)
