Black-crowned Sparrow-Lark

Congratulations

Incredible spotting and photos, Mohammed. Congratulations.

What a beautiful series of images! Congratulations Mohammed, this is our Spotting of the Day! "What a stunning image! Our Spotting of the Day is a special sighting a pair of Black-crowned Sparrow-Larks (Eremopterix nigriceps) and their chicks. In this species found across northern Africa through the Middle East to north-western India, the male is recognizable by a bold pied head pattern, while the female has pale sandy brown colors. Their nest is a shallow depression on the ground beneath a shrub, and both sexes incubate the clutch of 2 to 3 eggs. When the chicks leave the nest, they separate and each adult becomes responsible for one chick, a behavior which may reduce the risk of predation".
