Summary

[edit]
Description

I hope I got the Id right since some of these Larks are very hard to differentiate. This species of lark has a distinctive behavior of flying and singing while flying - at the same time it would briefly hover and flutter its wings continuously. This behavior sets its apart from the commonly found bushlark. I didn't see this behavior on this day, but the bird was much paler than the bushlark.

These are resident birds of South India and found exclusively on the subcontinent. During summers, they are much easier to sight as it is their breeding season where they lay the nest on the ground around some depression on the ground or rocks.

Many thanks in advance for your views/ feedback. Much appreciated.
