nounwoodlark (plural woodlarks)
plural woodlarks
- A lark, Lullula arborea, the only member of the genus Lullula, found in western Eurasia and northern Africa.
At this moment the woodlark commenced his morning song with his clear ringing notes, which in the darkness of the night reminded us of the bright approaching dawn, and formed a cheerful contrast to the ghostly flight and unpleasant notes of the nocturnal birds.
1886, Peter Christen Asbjørnsen, translated by H.L. Brækstad, Folk and Fairy Tales, page 86
