Chinese Bushlark

Mirafra cheniana

The Chinese Bushlark (Mirafra cheniana) is a small passerine bird found in China. It is characterized by its streaked brown plumage, with a pale underside and a distinctive facial pattern. This species is known for its melodious and varied song, often delivered from a low perch. The Chinese Bushlark inhabits open grasslands, agricultural fields, and scrubby areas, where it forages for insects and seeds on the ground. Although not currently considered threatened, habitat loss and agricultural intensification pose potential risks to its populations.
