Hi Steve,

Great photo, but I think this is a Skylark, because it seems to have a stubbier bill than a meadow pipit would.

Excellent capture. How on earth did you get close enough?

It was more interested in an earthworm than us - plus the 400mm lense helps, even so I was only about 4 metres away. Unfortunately it swallowed the worm before I press the trigger!!
