Heavyly cropped Meadowlark

[Knight]

Went to work today and we were a odd number so i asked the Boss for a day off, so on my way home i decided to take a back road. First subject i came upon was a Northern Harrier ( 2 Pictures but not good enough to post ) Then a couple of Common Goldeneyes ( couple of awfull pictures again lol) A little further down the road a American Kestrel ( Couple of pics again but to far to be any good ) And finaly i see a Meadowlark hes far away but heres the cropped version ( God i need a longer lense hehe ) Loupey i feel for you these Meadowlarks are hard to track lol

I should think with the camoflage this bird has without the yellow head marking they are hard to see, a good find Knight, and i love the angle the bird has posed for you, it shows the head off nicely.

Beautiful birds with pretty song. Nice job on a tough subject.

Yes, when they land, finding them is hard enough. Then trying to get closer is even harder

I was thinking almost exactly the same. Great catch Knight!

Thanks for taking the time guys , im starting to look more at habitat instead of just driving around till i spot something . Think i see just as many subjects just by sitting still in certain places

Knowing bird songs and call will further your subject rate Finding a meadowlark in a field can be nerve racking at times!
