If you see something move in the trees and it is lime yellow with black wings, it is probably a western meadowlark. It has a lime yellow belly, black wings and a V shaped black bib on its neck. The western meadowlark forages for food in the winter. It feeds on insects and seeds.
Meadowlarks are a year-round bird.
They fly in small flocks. They nest deep in the grass. They lay 3 to 7 eggs in a nest in May through June. They sit on their nests most of the day and blend in with the grass pretty well. They can get up to 8 inches long and 6 inches tall.
