Great video on the 2 different bullfinch and mutations of the bullfinch any chance you can do a video on different siskins and there mutations Oliver all the best from 🇬🇧 Staffordshire 🏴
You talked about the Irish and the English bullfinch, when you say English do you mean British? are there no native bullfinches in Wales and Scotland just to clarify?
Hi Matthew, The 2 most common varieties in the native bullfinch would be the Irish bullfinch and English bullfinch which are the most distinct from eachother in colour. But the English bullfinch is another term used for the British bullfinch, and I chose to use this term as it is the next most common term to British bullfinch used in bird keeping. I have heard the term Scottish bullfinch once, never welsh bullfinch, of course that doesn’t mean there isn’t though. But the native bullfinch is the collective term of all the small bullfinch of the Eurasian bullfinch species, which will likely have ancestors from England, Ireland, Scotland, Wales and countries on the continent like France and Spain. Also these birds will fly across countries’ boarders therefore won’t have one single country they’ve descended from. So those found in Scotland will have English bred birds in them and so fourth… I hope that answers your question. Thanks for watching, Oliver
