THE Horned Lark (Eremophila alpestris praticola) is the only midwestern alaudid. Its population in Illinois has increased in this century more than that of any other native bird (Graber and Graber 1963), perhaps because of its acceptance of farm fields as nesting sites. We studied its breeding behavior from September 1968 through April 1970 on a university campus and on farmland at Macomb, Illinois. The farm study area (Figure 1) consisted of a 25-acre hayfield and a 63-acre cornfield.
