Meadow Pipit (North Yorks) ? (1 Viewer)

I'm assuming this is just a meadow pipit. Looked a bit paler and plumper than most of the meadow pipits around.

Taken near the highest point on the North York Moors - Danby Beacon. A bit early for Dotterel, but plenty of golden plover in breeding plumage, wheatear, red grouse, red-legged partridge, pheasant, lapwing and curlew as well as dozens of meadow pipits.

Hard to tell 100% from this distance but prob. a Meadow P.

Yes the shot is quite distant - I'm assuming that its a meadow pipit with its feathers fluffed up. There were lots of meadow pipits around but they were generally looking much sleeker and brighter coloured which was what drew my attention to this individual.
