The tree pipit, Anthus trivialis, is a small passerine bird which breeds across most of Europe and temperate western and central Asia. It is a long-distance migrant moving in winter to Africa and southern Asia.
This is a small pipit, which resembles meadow pipit. It is an undistinguished-looking species, streaked brown above and with black markings on a white belly and buff breast below. It can be distinguished from the slightly smaller meadow pipit by its heavier bill and greater contrast between its buff breast and white belly. Tree pipits more readily perch in trees.
The call is a strong spek, unlike the weak call of its relative. The song flight is unmistakable. The bird rises a short distance up from a tree, and then parachutes down on stiff wings, the song becoming more drawn out towards the end.
The breeding habitat is open woodland and scrub. The nest is on the ground, with 4–8 eggs being laid. This species is insectivorous, like its relatives, but will also take seeds
Lifecycle
mid-September to mid-April: lives in sub Saharan Africa
mid April to beginning of May: migrates and arrives in countries such as the United Kingdom
beginning of May to August: breeding season, two broods
August to mid September: flies back to Saharan Africas
Management and conservation
They breed in habitats with a wooded component, including Lowland heath and coppice. They are found mostly in open birch woodland on the boundary with moorland, or open structured oak woodland – therefore heavy thinning is required to produce a gappy character. They prefer low canopy medium-sized trees, where there is low-growing scrub and bramble less than 2 metres high, so that horizontal visibility is relatively high. They like a mosaic of grass and bracken, but not very grazed short turf, so light to moderate grazing is preferred. Glades are also valuable, and streams are preferred.
Once they have arrived they nest on the ground amongst grass or heather tussocks. They forage on invertebrates found in the ground vegetation.
They need scattered trees as song perches.

Made this one on my way back, after a long day of exploring and making photos at a temple north of Angkor Wat, Cambodia.
A storm was coming in - it started raining short after this photo was made - and the clouds was getting quite interesting. And therefore I made a short stop to catch a few photos of it.
Here's a before and after comparison.

My favourite tree. Hundreds of years old and still going strong(ish).
Tonight I'd walked to it to try to catch the ISS passing over it. The chance of seeing the pass hadn't looked good through the day with heavy cloud cover, but an hour before the satellite was due, the cloud cleared.
Using the great SPUTNIK app, I postioned the camera to catch as much of the pass as I could and then sat down to wait.
This was taken 10 minutes before the ISS flew by and as the cloud returned.
At least I got this picture...
