I seem to recollect reading about a medieval method of hunting larks (which
species?for what?) that involved some kind of clock work mechanism that
rotated a little mirror. This is supposed to attract larks ?

I am trying to find any references to this and any explanations for the
behaviour.
(assuming that the whole thing is true in the first place )
