Dunn's lark

Dunn's lark (''Eremalauda dunni'') is a small passerine bird of the lark family. It is a desert bird which is found across parts of the Sahara and Arabia. There are two subspecies: ''E. d. dunni'' in the Sahara and ''E. d. eremodites'' in Arabia.〔Snow, D. W. & Perrins, C. M. (1998) ''Birds of the Western Palearctic: Concise Edition, Vol. 2'', Oxford University Press.〕 The species belongs to the genus ''Eremalauda''; Stark's lark of Southern Africa is sometimes placed in this genus as well but other authorities such as the ''Handbook of the Birds of the World'' place it in ''Spizocorys''.〔African Bird Club (2006) ''(ABC African Checklist: Passerines )'' Accessed 15/05/08.〕
==Description==
Dunn's lark is a stocky bird with a large head and broad wings. It is 14 to 15 cm long with a wingspan of 25 to 30 cm.〔 The upperparts are pale sandy-brown with darker streaks. The underparts are whitish with some dark streaks on the breast. There is a pale stripe over the eye and a pale ring around it. Birds have dark moustachial and malar stripes and a dark mark under the eye. The short, broad tail is black below while the upperside is black with rusty-brown central feathers and pale outer feathers. The bill is large, heavy and pale pinkish or yellowish in colour. After moulting, the birds become gradually duller and the dark markings fainter as the plumage becomes more worn.〔Harris, Alan, Shirihai, Hadoram & Christie, David (1996) ''The Macmillan Birder's Guide to European and Middle Eastern Birds'', Macmillan, London.〕
The song is a scratchy warbling with short whistling phrases. Males sing either from the ground or in flight, hovering 30 metres or more above the ground.〔
