They are marked beautifully--also lovely horned lark photos! <br />Birds are so clever, the dont usually fear a car that continues to move, but once you stop they figure it could be trouble and so they take off--if we could get good at drive by shooting we would be getting all sorts of cool bird shots!Sondrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03485055844682296876noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6364686787961129602.post-71484136664478092912011-02-01T17:05:41.205-05:002011-02-01T17:05:41.205-05:00Nice captures of these lovely birds.Nice captures of these lovely birds.Pathttp://pattyler1.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6364686787961129602.post-87990249166690040962011-02-01T16:50:48.610-05:002011-02-01T16:50:48.610-05:00Lovely images of your beautiful birds.

I saw Snow Buntings for the first time last fall and was immediately smitten with the litte darling 'amore' birds. And, Horned larks are fab.
