Nice Image Rajan saab.The eye contact, details and pose are Grt. BG is super.
Looks like a lark to me.Closest i can get to is Indian bush lark. Not sure though.Larks are a tough lot to ID without a feild guide.

This looks like a Lark to me.In Pipit tail would have been longer.Nice image anyway.TFS
Not very sure but it looks like a Syke's crested lark female to me.

Bill looks like that of Ashy crowned sparrow lark's (female). Since the image was from Marudhamalai (foot hills of W.Ghats) I suppose it is Ashy crowned sparrow lark.
Lovely pose and eye contact. The clean background adds to the image. Nice details. Wish the perch was natural. Thanks for sharing.
Ashy crowned sparrow lark is different.This seems to be a bush lark.Quote:

Sorry, This could be a Female ashy crowned sparrow lark also.Very difficult to distinguish from Indian Bush lark.But I love them all:DQuote:
