Can't Mistake Those Markings

The meadowlark shows up occasionally in the field where I walk - but may not be as often as they brush hogged it again this afternoon after I got him this morning. Not much cover left anywhere.

@tonydebont It where they use an extra large rotary lawn mower thing (but with a huge blade) powered by a tractor to clear all brush up to several inches high leaving almost nothing standing in the field.

That's an amazing shot as larks don't tend to stay still for long and are quite small birds. Well done!
