The scene of the tragedy was the nest of a pipit, or titlark, on the ground beneath a heather-bush.

The American pipit, or titlark, has a peculiar wavering flight when, after being flushed, it reluctantly leaves the ground.

The melody of singing birds ranks as follows: The nightingale first, then the linnet, titlark, sky lark and wood lark.

From this and the season, and the size and color of the bird, I knew he had seen the pipit or titlark.

Blackbirds catch them on the ground, as do the killdeer, titlark, meadow lark, and others; while orioles hunt for them on the bolls.

Near me a titlark every few minutes rose from the sward, and spreading his wings came down aslant, singing with all his might.

It is new to me that titlarks in cages sing in the night; perhaps only caged birds do so.

The birds most common along the coast at present are the stone-chatters, whin-chats, buntings, linnets, some few wheatears, titlarks, etc.

These two larks must not be confused with the meadow larks and titlarks, which belong to the blackbird and pipit families respectively.

That the titlarks are singing I know, but not within hearing from here; a dove, though, is audible, and a chiffchaff has twice passed.
