Field Notes

Description:

Has a long tan stripe going down each of its wings and white stripes going across. It is about an inch long.

Habitat:

It is native to Africa and Europe but I found it in Southern California

Notes:

It's very injured, and has been sitting in the rain all day. I found it with its head stuck in the mud. I am thinking of taking it home and try to help it.
