During summer, the Eurasian skylark primarily feeds on insects and spiders, while in winter it switches to seeds and grains; the species collects its food from the surface of the soil and pecks food from the ground. The diet includes ants, beetles, butterflies, flies, Hymenoptera, bedbugs, Orthoptera, dragonflies, mayflies, and lacewings. The food strategy involves searching for and obtaining sustenance. Daily food consumption ranges from 15 grams to 35 grams.
