Field Notes
Description:
The Lark Sparrow is a large sparrow. It has a long, rounded tail with white corners. Plain whitish underparts with large dark spot in center of breast. It has a striking face pattern.
Habitat:
One of two Lark Sparrows on the top of the YMCA Education building.
Notes:
We had just attended a meeting about declining bird populations in North Texas. The Lark Sparrow was identified as in major decline. As we left the building, there was a pair on the top of the building. Almost saying... your not looking in the right spot!
