First thing I thoought of was bunting butI could only think of
Corn Bunting (Miliaria calandra)
Well, I regret to inform You that we don´t have a right answer.gif "Big Grin")
Well, I suppose that I'll have to jump into the fray and work it out myself (Louise quickly grabs her guide books and starts leafing through with furrowed brow and a lot of headscratching)
How about a spring version of a Skylark, Alauda arvensis?
Well done
Sånglärka Eurasian Skylark Alauda arvensis
Hope to hear it sing
It would be lovely to hear a Lark sing, but they are getting fewer and fewerOops, I just realised how my earlier comment might have sounded... I didn't actually expect to get it right !!!!
