Spotted
The Dune Lark is a species of lark found exclusively in the Namib Desert, characterized by its sandy-buff plumage that blends seamlessly with the desert dunes. It is a true desert specialist.
Where to spot
Endemic to the red dunes and sand plains of the Namib Desert in Namibia.
How to spot
Look for it walking or running across sandy surfaces. Its exceptional camouflage means you often spot movement before seeing the bird itself. Listen for its distinctive, somewhat buzzy song.
When to spot
Observable year-round. Most active during the cooler parts of the day, especially early morning.
