Birds on the Wire

Walking along the disused railway track in Lower Largo, noticed these birds on the telephone wires above. Difficult to identify as they were so far away, but I think they are linnets because of the forked tail, reddish breast with white midline.

Reminded me of a song that I'd heard sung by Tommy Makem and Liam Clancy -
All God's creatures got a place in the choir,
Some sing low and some sing higher,
Some sing out loud on the telephone wire,
Some just clap their hands or paws or anything they've got now
