You would think with the Meadowlark being the state bird of Nebraska (one state to the west) that I would have a plethora of Meadowlark pictures. But this is my very first one. I just wish the leaf wouldn't have caused such a strong shadow on his chest. C&C are always welcome. Thanks for looking.

Excellent shot of a beautiful colorful bird I've yet to see. It's actually a Dickcissel..

I'd love to see one of these. As ngannet says, it's a Dickcissel.

Once again, my birding I.D. skills are lacking. Thanks for the I.D. and nice comments.

Well I didn't have a Dickcissel picture either so I guess I still come out ahead. Thanks for the help!!
