The image of a yellowhammer accompanies a sound file labelled "Beethoven's Piano Concerto"? Something's messed up. OhanaUnitedTalk page 20:00, 25 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Read the text below it. I haven't heard the Yellowhammer's call, so can't say, but it's a featured article, so I presume it's right. Adam Cuerden (talk) 23:12, 25 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
"The opening notes of Beethoven's 4th Piano Concerto may be based on the song of the yellowhammer." :-) Ed [talk] [majestic titan] 17:59, 26 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
