Temminck’s Lark Eremophila bilopha is a scarce and
erratic winter visitor to most northern areas of the Kingdom. It is also a breeding
resident, locally common in Central Deserts. I have looked for this species
quite a few times in various areas but have so far not managed to see any. I
obviously need to visit the north again this year and hope to better than
previously. Mansur managed to see some birds near Zulfi in late November and
sent me one of his great photos of it along with a couple of other photos of
Steppe Eagle and Common Quail taken in the same area at the same time.
I thank Mansur for kindly allowing me to use his photos on my website which are
shown below.
