Larking

Watched some Woodlarks the other day. Undoubtedly one of the best songsters in the UK and an evocative sound of early spring in heathland. The flight call was surprisingly loud and males reacted rapidly to other males singing close to their territories. 

 

These birds are really vulnerable to disturbance and egg-theft, so please don't publicise precise locations for this (and other rare) species.
