Skylark - Alauda Arvensis

 

Skylarks are characteristic of semi-natural grassland systems from sand dunes through heathland to marginal upland, but are most common in arable farmland, making use of the nesting cover and bare ground for feeding that crops themselves provide throughout the year. Males are highly territorial, using long song flights at high altitude to broadcast to rivals and potential mates because the open landscapes they prefer are devoid of high perches. The stamina required to sustain long song flights has led to song flight length being used as an “honest signal” of male quality by females, allowing male Skylarks to advertise themselves without bright plumage, so they have kept the cryptic, brown and streaked coloration that affords them protection from predators on the ground.

 

Although migratory in much of northern Europe, British breeding Skylarks are believed not to move far between seasons, although upland birds move to lower latitudes. They can then often begin to breed in March and continue into July, making up to three breeding attempts. In winter, they mostly use crop stubble and fallow fields, in which they forage for weed seed and spilled grain, often in large flocks. Throughout the year, the Skylark’s heritage as a steppe species is apparent in its avoidance of vertical structures, which restricts the suitability of farmland with a high density of hedgerows.

 

Thanks to all who take the time to Comment/fav etc, it is always Appreciated.

   

There's a car park either side, but the smaller of the two on the right has been used as extra outdoor space.

 

The original pub on the site was a large detached house bought by the brewery chain in 1920. It had a Saloon bar one side and a Public bar the other. Between the two was a door leading to the bar which was used as an off-licence.

 

The present building was built on the site in the 1980s and given a refresh about a decade ago.

I see you from the distance

From beyond the fence you made

Hiding all your feelings

Behind your barricade

Oh have you been invaded

Is this the reason why you hide

I know just how you're feeling

I know-let me inside

Open the gate up

Open the gate up-hurry

Open the gate up-hurry

I want to get near you

But you just won't let me in

'Cause you're so scared of losing

Everything you've got within

 

No Doubt

Back in August I found some walnuts on the ground beneath a walnut tree. I've let them mature in the garage and after removing the green pulpy outer layer, I cracked one open today to see what was inside. Surprise surprise, a walnut!!

I don’t get close to this open beak! He is a rescue and only handled by my husband. He’s not aggressive, just a brat without manners that doesn't know his strength.

 

For Macro Monday's theme "open". The frame is cropped to less than 3 inches. You'll have to take my word for it since I don't dare hold a ruler up to him...LOL. :-)

This is another fence that has an open side. I’m sure they train the horses or cows not to go out of the yard. Otherwise, the fence would be useless.
