There are so many Larks which look so alike that this ID is possibly wrong, I based it on distribution.
This was taken in Southern Serengeti, Tanzania
EOS 1DX
200-400 mm F4 at 560 mm
F8
ISO 800
1/1250

The image is tack sharp and the background is great. I might add a little canvass to the bottom and take a bit off the top. Great example of how an average bird can make a great image. Well done.

Can't help you with the ID, pretty far off my usual turf. I like the shot as posted, and especially like the color palette, which brightens up the bird nicely.

Excellent pose and sweet light, Ken. I'm not sure why, since both feet are extremely sharp, but the face looks like it could use just a bit of extra sharpening.

Really like the color palette on this one Ken. I do wish for a touch more canvas on bottom if you have it, if not, it still works....just think it would be an improvement. Nice work though!
