Spotted
The Somali Short-billed Lark is a small, pale lark found in arid grasslands and semi-deserts of the Horn of Africa. It has a relatively short, conical bill.
Where to spot
Arid and semi-arid grasslands, open plains, and sparse scrub in the Horn of Africa (e.g., Somalia, Ethiopia).
How to spot
Requires careful scanning of open, barren ground. Its cryptic plumage makes it challenging to spot, so look for subtle movements or listen for its calls.
When to spot
Observable year-round, active during the cooler parts of the day.
This lark's preference for very sparse vegetation and stony ground allows it to thrive in extremely arid conditions.
