Michael Warren: Western Meadowlark The Western Meadowlark favors the prairies and grassy valleys, but it also frequents sagebrush flats and the grassy glades within pine forests. In late summer it many nest at an altitude of twelve thousand feet in the open grasslands of the Rockies. Flocks of these birds wander in the fall, but they do not migrate very far. They winter as far north as they can find snow-free feeding grounds. The female usually builds her roofed-over nest of grass on dry ground in contrast to the moist depressions chosen by the eastern species. The Western Meadowlark typically raises two broods a season.
