Hi all Along Weld CR 48 at Latham Reservoir. I don't have any experience distinguishing between the two meadowlarks. I will say this meadowlark behaved quite differently than the "1,000s" I have seen up here in Weld County. Very cooperative--unlike any meadowlark I've come across and did not sound like any meadowlark I've seen. In fact when I first heard its chip call I thought "some bird in cattails" until I started videoing and saw that it was this bird making that unfamiliar chip call. In listening to chip call on video (below) it sounds like an Eastern Meadowlark on my iPod.
Thoughts?
