Crysler - I spent hours today trying to find the right individuals. It was tough (these are very difficult birds to work with) but I finally located an adult male that typifies what a Horned Lark looks like.

Winchester - Our first spring migrants. This is the Prairie subspecies – white above the eye rather than yellow for the northern subspecies.

Chesterville - These are our first songbird migrants, a welcome sight after winter. Small flocks, pairs and singles are present in open fields and along roadsides.

Ingleside - As a followup to my January post of the northern subspecies of Horned Lark that overwinters here, this is the Prairie subspecies that has been migrating through for the last couple of weeks. Many of us consider this our first spring bird because it usually is. Note the white rather than yellow above the eye.

Williamsburg - This is the northern subspecies, a few of which overwinter in the region. Spring migrants will arrive in a little over a month.

At first upon stumbling on this lone bird near Tilley, Alberta I was sure I had a Sprague's Pipit. However at closer look, this was actually a young Horned Lark.

With difficult conditions, this was the only other species I could photograph at Mirabel, Quebec. Now into the deep freeze...

St. Rose - This is the Prairie subspecies which migrates south and returns in late February as our first spring bird. Note the white area over the eye. So what is it doing here now? It must have missed the bus :) Large flocks of Horned Larks appeared in the area today, fresh arrivals from the north since yesterday.

It has been freezing in Northeast North America these past few months. This has severely limited the photography of birds but spring has arrived, and so have some flocks of Horned Larks. Seen at Mirabel, Quebec, Canada.

Horned Larks are very common at the edges of roads in winter, but how often do we really stop and enjoy these beautiful birds?

While looking for a Gyrfalcon that was spotted yesterday, there were several Horned Larks in the area near Mirabel, Quebec, north of Montreal.
