How on earth did you ID the lark?
Probably by the distinctive flight behavior and simultaneous calling

The lark was displaying....climbs steeply with trailing legs in aerial display, clapping its wings and then parachutes down giving a long ascending whistle . The ID was the easy part,...capturing the photo was another story. =O:

Very happy with the Harrier find as well. :)

Thank you ...I am hoping for some birdies but I also don't mind photographing insects . I tend to stay far away from them and use my 600mm lens ...especially those jumpy flying things. :)
