The songs of larks over the rustle of a meadow can at last be accepted as music. |
Along the perimeter I saw an unusual number of crested larks and a few red-wattled plovers in a recently flooded field. |
Waders such as redshank and spoonbills, have begun to proliferate, and numbers of larks, linnets, yellowhammers and reed bunting have grown. |
For those that got in, we drank away until the wee small hours and talked of old times, japes and larks. |
I particularly enjoyed the jolly japes and larks of Ping the Elastic Man, Tin-Can Tommy and Whoopee Hank the slapdash sheriff. |
As I tramped pale flinty paths through the cornfields, larks sang and March hares frolicked. |
