Male skylarks will rise almost vertically from grassland, salt marshes and moorland. They hover effortlessly, singing from a great height. Normally, a speck in the sky, but a treat to hear. This bird was keeping its feet on the ground, singing like mad.

Very pretty – that tuft on the head is interesting. Was it windy?

That is nice – I see our Cardinals and Tufted Titmice do that when they are alerted by food sometimes.
