Least Concern

The Bengal Bushlark is a ground-dwelling lark of the Indian subcontinent's dry grasslands, scrub, and river plains. It walks or runs through open habitat, taking seeds and insects, and many larks sing in display flights above grassland, desert, steppe, or farmland before dropping back to the ground.
