This is definately a skylark.
However which skylark is it?
A useful character to separate Eurasian Skylark from Oriental Skylark is the primary projection.
Form this photo, the primary tip is clearly beyound tertials which match Eurasian Skylark. Thus I think it's Eurasian (or Northern) Skylark.

I think this is definitely an immature Skylark.  However, I am not confident on using the primary projection to separate Oriental to Eurasian Skylark.  For juveniles, that makes it even more difficult to me to separate them.

I think it is a Eurasian Skylark too. However, why sometimes we can't see its feature projection on the head??
Is it a characteristic for its juvenile?
