Bobolink and Warbler both makes of their species.

Bobolink: yellow cap and mostly black, female much light brownish cream like colours.
Warbler: Male yellow due to streaked breast and much brighter than female.

thanks for the info.
So is it both males I have then?
I'm new to this hobby, I high jacked a few of my dads old lens and bought a cheap digital body for them. I think I'm going to be a fairly regular poster in the ID help section!
