A sky lark

Skylark with Caterpillar Wikipedia

When out walking in the countryside, one can sometimes hear one of the most beautiful song birds ever,  If you are lucky, as they are fast disappearing.

             *********

The skylark It is a bird of open farmland and heath, known for the song of the male, which is delivered in hovering flight from heights of 50 to 100 metres (160 to 330 ft). The sexes are alike. It is streaked greyish-brown above and on the breast and has a buff-white belly. Wikipedia

It has a long uninterrupted song while hovering in one spot which is beautiful to listen to.
