About These Birds

Agulhas Long-billed Lark

The Agulhas Long-billed Lark is a lark of the Alaudidae family, weighing about 43 g, restricted to the Agulhas Plain at the southern tip of South Africa. It favours low coastal scrubland and fynbos, where it uses its curved bill to probe the soil for invertebrates.

Black Lark

The Black Lark is a large, ground-dwelling lark; males in breeding plumage are almost entirely jet-black with a slightly paler wing edge, while females are heavily streaked brown. It breeds on dry steppe and semi-desert grasslands of central Asia, particularly Kazakhstan and adjacent Russia, migrating in flocks to the northern Caspian region and Central Asia in winter. It feeds on seeds, insects, and plant matter.
