The Eastern meadowlark is not a producer; it is a consumer. Producers are typically plants that convert sunlight into energy through photosynthesis. In contrast, the Eastern meadowlark is a bird that feeds on insects and seeds, relying on producers for its energy and sustenance within the ecosystem.
The main distinction is a difference in the birds' calls. The Eastern meadowlark has a high, buzzy drzzt, given in a rapid series in flight. A Western meadowlark's call is similar to the Eastern, but lower pitched; also gives a whistled wheet.
