A bobolink bird perched in a field. The English "Bobolink" is from Bob o' Lincoln, describing the call. During mating season, the male has beautiful colors. The numbers of these birds are declining due to loss of habitat. Bobolinks are a species at risk throughout Canada. In Vermont, a 75% decline was noted between 1966 and 2007.
