The Desert Lark is distributed in Africa north of the Sahara, the Arabian Peninsula and into Iran, Pakistan and north-west India. It is found in desert and semi-desert but avoids flat, sandy areas.
Features to look for are the fairly heavy bill with a brownish-yellow base and a darker culmen and tip. It is unstreaked above and has a slow, undulating flight.
There is more information available via Avibase.
