About These Birds
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.
Angola Lark
The Angola Lark is a medium-sized Alaudidae with a 15.8 cm wingspan, weighing 36 grams, found in open grassland habitats in Angola and neighboring countries. It forages on the ground for seeds and insects, and males deliver song in display flights above their territories.
