Skylark

It's not often I am able to get as close to a Skylark as this. I'd stopped in a layby on the moors to see what was about when I spotted this Skylark wandering around on the grassy verge. The camera was in the boot. So I had to stealthily get out of the car and walk crouched to the boot, all the while hoping it hadn't seen me, or at least seen me as a threat. (I was also hoping no one else would drive past and see me behaving in such a way). Anyway, I managed no to scare the bird off and rested on my wing mirror to get these pictures.
So well camouflaged, and nice to see it this close for a change.
