info

Mongolian larks and horned larks were common on the boundless plains of Mongolia. With such a difference that Mongolian larks occurred on green, more abundant with grass terrains. As we were driving south towards the Gobi Desert, and on the Gobi Desert itself, we could observe only horned larks. The photographs of the Mongolian lark and the horned lark were always taken by chance and we did not devote to them any separate session. The birds would always keep a distance from us, however as we spent two weeks in Mongolia, several pictures were taken to build galleries of these species. This text is common for the horned lark and the Mongolian lark. The horned larks photographed in Mongolia are different from the ones seen in Poland. It is the Eremophila alpestris brandti subspecies.
