Spotted
A small, inconspicuous lark with streaky brownish plumage that provides excellent camouflage against its stony, arid habitat. It typically has a somewhat pointed bill and lacks strong facial markings.
Where to spot
High-altitude stony deserts, barren plains, and rocky plateaus across Central Asia, from eastern Afghanistan to western China.
How to spot
Requires patience due to its cryptic plumage and preference for desolate landscapes. Look for movement on the ground or listen for its simple, somewhat melancholic song.
When to spot
Year-round resident, but birding can be challenging due to the extreme habitats. Best observed during warmer months (spring/summer) when it's more active.
