Rufous-naped Lark

Photo was taken January 2020 in Tanzania, in Arusha region, near Kakesio (specific GPS coordinates are within the EXIF data).

 

Note that I originally ID'ed this as an African Pipit (the EXIF data includes a tag for that ID), but it was subsequently pointed out to me that this was not a Pipit, and I agree. Thinking some type of Lark, but I am unable to determine a specific species.

 

Update - Some folks over at iNaturalist suggested this was a Rufous-naped Lark. That ID for this bird feels right.
