Meadow Pipit - Anthus pratensis

This might have been a Tree Pipit, or it is Meadow Pipit. This was taken in sunlight, my fault.
Photographed at Old Passage, Bristol, GB.

  1. If taken recently, this will be a Meadow Pipit. Tree Pipits will be arriving in a month or so from abroad where they winter.

    1. Thanks Marc
      I wasn't sure, especially it's strange that loads birds are coming here a month early, put it down to climate changing!

  8. Reference David's comment, Bob, I'm pretty sure it's not a Tree Pipit in a meadow!!

  14. Hi Bob,
    Difficult to say as to which, the giveaway is the long rear claw on the Meadow but this we cannot see.
    All the best, John
