What is a "lark"?

A lark is a small to medium-sized songbird known for its melodious and uplifting songs that fill the skies. Found in various parts of the world, larks are typically characterized by their brownish or sandy-colored plumage, which provides excellent camouflage in grassy habitats where they are often found. With their slender bodies, long hind claws, and short, rounded wings, larks are well adapted for their terrestrial lifestyle. They are known for their distinctive flight displays, soaring high into the air while singing and then descending in a beautiful display of aerial acrobatics. Larks are also renowned for their complex and intricate songs, which are often delivered while perched on elevated spots such as fence posts or tree branches.
