LARK SPARROW

Courting male Lark Sparrows put on a dance that lasts for up to 5 minutes. The dance starts with the male hopping, then spreading his tail and drooping his wings so that they nearly touch the ground, almost like a turkey strutting. (Cornell)

 

This Lark Sparrow was part of a small flock foraging for seeds and insects.

 

Photographed on the Western Slope, Colorado.
