Olympus E5, ZD300f2.8, 2xTC, ISO100, f8.0, 1/640 resting on vehicle window

Not the usual Western Meadowlark photo. I usually can't see them well when they are on the ground, but was able to catch this one with a mouthful.

This background works well. Great moment of capture.

Well done. I have a hard time finding them when they are feeding in a wheat field also. Capturing this one with a mouthful of grubs is great. A crop off the right would take the bird out of the center of the frame.
