Years ago I spotted 2 meadowlarks along the fence as I was driving..I was so excited...I know a flock might have had me run off the road..LOL
Thanks for trying to get a pic as I know you would have shared it.
It looks inviting out there..so I best go fill the bird bath saucers before my nap.

Ode to a meadowlark

A Poem by Rick Puetter

Ah, rising sun, kiss morning’s dew
Chill breath of night away thou chase
A sprite from trees there yonder flew
But why flies he away in haste?
As I through meadows lonely pace

Crimson orb, paint sky with red
On fields, again, new day does break
Yet from love’s loss my heart has bled
And Sorrow, joy of life does take
As o’er these fields my way I make

And I have suffered now so long
For I have lost my love of years
And so near given up life's song
And openly cried bitter tears
When life's great gladness disappeared

But burst of color now does dash!
And heart’ning call of bird I hear
Bright yellow through my tears doth flash
And call so trill without a peer
Defeating grief, my soul does cheer

Now wind makes low, I strain to see
Where didst the merry fellow go?
Not in the sky, nor in the tree
There sounds again! Away and low
Another bird calls to its beau

Oh happy bird, I envy you!
You’ll find your love again, I know
You’ll have your love as day renews
To warm your heart when cold wind blows
And shield you from life's winter snows

Yet still I cannot help but smile
This cheerful bird to his love sings
As I have stood here for this while
Enraptured song contentment brings
Oh, there he goes—he’s taking wing!

Meg, I Read that Meadowlarks are beginning to Dwindle in Number Every Year, so I'm Thankful to have Seen those Today.
They are Such a Beautiful Bird, and their Yellow Vests are So Pretty.

Thank you to Everyone for the Wonderful Sunday Posts!
