68 : Crested Lark



Crested Lark - Galerida cristata

I like these comical little larks. They are resident right across the Middle East and you can find them on any patch of arid semi-desert. Barsha Park must be luxury for them with its manicured lawns. I have seen these birds in Spain as well so I guess they are right across the Mediteranean and North Africa. They do not seem to need wilderness - any patch of building site will do in Dubai.

Additional photo added from Warsan pits to make up for dire shot above !


And better still...
