Tawny Pipit. Hidden in my mobile hut near the drain of a fountain. For my taste the frame is too "full", but it's a no crop so I couldn't do otherwise. Abruzzo - Gran Sasso Laga National Park

I rarely get a close Pipit shot against an uncluttered background since they forage on the mudflat areas amid the vegetation at the edge of wetland areas. This one obliged me by hopping up on this rock above the mucky stuff.
Lamont County, Alberta.
Species: Anthus pratensis.
A small, brown, streaky bird, the meadow pipit is the most common songbird in upland areas. Its high, piping call is a familiar sound. In flight it shows white outer tail feathers and in the breeding season it has a fluttering 'parachute' display flight. In winter, they are quite gregarious and gather in small flocks, often invisible among the vegetation, suddenly flying up with typical jerky flight.
Meadow pipit numbers in the UK have been declining since the mid-1970s, resulting in this species being included on the amber list of conservation concern. Info: RSPB.

Australasian Pipit (Anthus novaeseelandiae)
This Pipit seemed to be addressing others that were feeding in the grass in the Research Farm Paddock. The piece of volcanic rock was the perfect 'stage' for it.
Species: Anthus pratensis.
Meadow Pipits breed in open country on heaths, moors, bogs, and coastal marshes. The nest is on the ground usually well concealed, and built by the female from dry grass and lined with finer grass and hair. Info: British Birds.

This is the time of the year when many of these little birds are busy feeding cuckoos.
Fortunately this meal was destined for a very noisy pipit chick
