This bird settled in the state&#8217;s sunflower fields and resounded with the children of the state. The vivid yellow of its tummy and breast nicely resembles the sunflower petals.<\/p><p>The Western Meadowlark was chosen as the State Bird after a poll of the state&#8217;s 121,000 schoolchildren by the Kansas Audubon Society.

They go under shelter and remain silent at night. They won&#8217;t be singing late at night. These birds build their nests amid scanty bushes and grasses on the ground.<\/p><p>They have developed their capacity to survive discreetly as the sun sets in the sky because they do not stay out of reach of predators. They are not found in woods or even dense bushes. The male western meadowlark establishes its mating territory before females of its species arrive. It might defend its area for up to a month before females come.<\/p><p>The male and female utilize song &#8211; mating calls \u2013 to meet, as do many other birds. Their tweeting has been characterized as flute-like or whistle-like. While building her nest and laying eggs, the female of this species coos a &#8220;tee-tee-tee&#8221; sound.<\/p><p>They find each other while the female collects nest materials, build the nest, and breed. Unlike other birds, male meadowlarks mate with two females every season. These hard-working fathers deliver food to both nests and spend time with both of their families, all while helping to raise the chicks.<\/p><p>When the youngsters hatch from the eggs, their adoring parents jealously defend them. However, if a person comes, they will abandon a nest containing eggs. The incubating eggs are left behind, therefore you should never touch a meadowlark&#8217;s nest, and you should never let your kid do so either.<\/p><p>Other intrusions on their privacy will be chased away by the male meadowlark, regardless of the predator&#8217;s size. To defend his young, the father bird performs this watch job at both nests. When you glance up in Kansas, you&#8217;re likely to see a territorial male Western Meadowlark defending his brood.<\/p><p>These birds are known to sit on electric or telephone lines, fences, or poles. They can see a broad area at once from these heights and notice predators that may otherwise jeopardize their nests.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-4979127 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"4979127\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-00a9765\" data-id=\"00a9765\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-257966d elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"257966d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"564\" height=\"540\" src=\"https:\/\/thebirdpedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Kansas-State-Bird-Western-Meadowlark-3.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-1779\" alt=\"Kansas State Bird - Western Meadowlark\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thebirdpedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Kansas-State-Bird-Western-Meadowlark-3.jpg 564w, https:\/\/thebirdpedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Kansas-State-Bird-Western-Meadowlark-3-300x287.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 564px) 100vw, 564px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-45380ab3 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"45380ab3\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-c6db128\" data-id=\"c6db128\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1ca89694 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"1ca89694\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h5 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-medium\">Do Western Meadowlarks form communities?<\/h5>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-349c13d9 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"349c13d9\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-312b6513\" data-id=\"312b6513\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d056c66 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"d056c66\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Despite the fact that males have two families, Meadowlarks establish nuclear families.

They leave food at each nest, and the mother bird feeds the young birds. Their eggs incubate for around 13 to 16 days. When young birds reach the age of two weeks, they depart the nest.<\/p><p>Because chicks can&#8217;t fly yet, their parents must continue to watch over them while they explore the grassland. They start flying at the age of five to six weeks. This allows them to go deeper and create their own hunting territory.<\/p><p>They may decide to move. This migratory bird spends the winter in the southern states of the United States and Mexico. During the summer months, these birds may travel as far north as Canada. During late April or early May, the birds return to their summer home in Canada.<\/p><p>The western meadowlark may migrate as far as the eastern meadowlark&#8217;s nesting areas.
