Fawn-colored Lark (1 Viewer)

[L'argonnais]

Hello,

bird seen last month in Namibia , approximately 20 miles east from Okahandja, in Otjisazu guest farm
I do not know which Lark it is. It might be a Fawn colored, but I m not sure at all ; for me the colour is not fawn enough. But all the other species correspond still less. Any hel is welcome !

A cisticola. Rattling or tinkling?

It's a cisticola, maybe Rattling Cisticola

Heavy bill looks like Croaking Cisticola to me

I don't think they occur there...

Maybe the slight angle makes it look stouter. But Croaking shouln't be in that location. It looks fine for Rattling to me.

Hi all,

not surprising I could not identify which lark it is !!!



The behaviour of the bird , visible on the top of a tree , is more the behaviour of the Rattling Cisticola; for me it is this one.

Thanks to all for the identification.
