A male Horned Lark (Eremophila alpestris) singing on its territory.  This bird would periodically take off and skylark 300-400 feet high while singing.  I was able to get pictures of that behavior too.

Great singing pose and eye contact, Terence, and neat that we can see the little horns.

Beautiful detail and with the 'horns' raised, Terry! Lovely shot.
