Lullula arborea

Near Threatened

About

A small, richly-voiced lark of open heathland, moorland, and scrubby grassland across Europe and western Asia, the woodlark has one of the most beautiful and elaborate songs of any European bird — a musical, flute-like falling cascade of pure notes often delivered during circular display flight at dusk and dawn. Despite its name, it inhabits woodland edges rather than dense forest. Listed as a Species of European Conservation Concern due to scrub encroachment and loss of open heathland habitat.
