We’ve seen a few Horned Larks scurrying around on the beaches or in the tall grass by the beaches in the past few days. They are such an unusual bird with two little black “horns” on their head. (Click on blog link for other photo.)

The Horned Lark, with  brown upperparts and white underparts, is distinctly known for its yellow face with a black mask which extends down, its two black “horns,” and its black bib.

Beautiful coloring. Have you ever seen a Horned Lark?
