Galerida cristata
spotted this lovely bird, early morning at around 7 am, in the bird sanctuary. not sure what is it.....the peg on its head, makes it look like a prince with the patterned fur on the chest like a scarf....what a royal look.!!
near water body, in area which was quite sandy....the bird almost camoflaged with the surrounding
Still I shall look into the smaller details..... :) and update., if necessary!!!
Yes .... you are correct...this lark is come from Kutch region, very close to jamnagar, where it was spotted. :)...Thanks once again
Nice! But the Crested Skylark has paler legs and is found mostly around Kutch in Gujarat hence I suggested Oriental Skylark.
Thanks Lenny Worthington and Wild Things....but searched into a little more depth to realize that this fellow is a crested lark and not an oriental one...but thanks to you both a lot.... :)
this one is species from Lark, not sure which one,
