video showing larks flying?

Where can I see video of larks flying? (Preferably online and free, but commercial movies/videos are also fine if you're sure the birds pictured are larks.) So far on YouTube, I've only found them walking or still, not flying.
Yeah, that's harder than one would think :-)
Ther might be some at the Internet Bird Collection, they have 47 videos of different larks.

Response by poster: Thanks all! My ideal would be the sort of lark one would see in western Europe. But all larks are good -- and there are Austrian larks at Thug's link. My rough interest is "what's special or notable about a lark's flying, as opposed to other birds' flying?"

Best answer: Well, for Skylarks, specifically, it would be the singing, more than the flying. They do their display song in flight. This youtube video is a singing Skylark in flight.
This guide (search for lark) is good for W European birds.
