About These Birds
Arabian Lark
The Arabian Lark is a ground-dwelling lark from the Arabian Peninsula, weighing about 20.5 grams with a wingspan near 16 cm. It inhabits open sandy and stony desert terrain, where its streaked brown plumage provides excellent camouflage. Like other larks, it forages on foot for seeds and insects and delivers its song in flight.
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.
