In a farmer's field

Perhaps you can pretend that this is a painting of these beautiful Horned Larks??? I seem to be posting rather too many photos recently of highly zoomed, highly cropped, grainy photos, lol. There were a number of these beautiful birds down amongst the stubble, feeding - very flighty, but I managed to get a couple of quick shots through the car window. Taken east of Calgary on 24 February 2013, when quite a few of us went on the annual Owl Prowl.
