Spotted
The Somali Rufous-naped Lark is a species found in arid grasslands and acacia scrub of the Horn of Africa, part of the Rufous-naped Lark complex but distinct in its range and subtle features.
Where to spot
Arid and semi-arid grasslands and acacia scrub in the Horn of Africa (e.g., Somalia, Ethiopia, Djibouti).
How to spot
Look for it perched conspicuously on low bushes or termite mounds in arid environments. Listen for its characteristic loud, clear whistle, similar to other Rufous-naped larks but with regional variations.
When to spot
Observable year-round, most vocal during the breeding season.
Like its relatives, it uses prominent perches to sing, often enduring harsh desert conditions.
