[birdky] Horned Lark egg

I had been seeing a couple of Horned Larks in the tobacco patch for some while. 
Then I found a Horned Lark egg on the ground while hoeing tobacco. Didn't see 
any nest. I must have destroyed the nest with the tractor cultivator. 
  A dozen or more years ago a pair of Killdeer laid their eggs in a tobacco  
row so I  was able to plow the tobacco without running over the eggs. I plowed 
that patch several times and had a high boy spray it once while the mother was 
brooding those eggs, which hatched successfully.
