A Little East

Mike Warner

This Western Meadowlark usually lives around the Rocky Mountains.  A pair of them ended up along a country road just west of Chicago mixed in with Tree Sparrows, Horned Larks, and Lapland Longspurs.  This is in non-breeding colors.  Later in the spring the black breast will become solid black and the yellows will become more pronounced.
