Indian Bushlark

The Indian Bushlark is a richly rufous lark endemic to the Indian subcontinent, performing a distinctive wing-snapping song flight over scrubby grassland. Often seen perched on low bushes or fenceposts singing. Velavadar and Tal Chhapar offer reliable sightings in open grassland habitat. See Indian Bushlark singing over India's grasslands.

Plan field days around Mar–Jul: light is often strongest at dawn and dusk, when many mammals and birds are most active. Work with a naturalist who knows local movement patterns — they will position you ethically while improving your odds of a encounter in Tal Chhapar Wildlife Sanctuary.
