Horsfield’s Bushlarks are back on Parkwood Rd. The field guides all say that unlike the skylark they do not have a crest but today they were raising their head feathers to look like a crest (see http://www.hbw.com/ibc/1290292 ). The raising of the head feathers in this way has been noted by some other observers.
