Western Meadowlark
Sturnella neglecta
The Western Meadowlark inhabits open grasslands, prairies, fields, and pastures across western North America. It forages mainly on the ground for insects, seeds, and grains, probing through vegetation with its pointed bill. Males are especially known for delivering rich, flute-like songs from exposed perches during the breeding season.
