    Help with two IDs from Agulhas Plains (South Africa)

    Theoretically, the white-backed is out of its normal range, and in fact, there is a breeding colony of Cape Vulture in the area. But I also saw something confusing with this vulture. The ligth was bad, so the picture is not very good.

    Pipit from Mountain Zebra NP (South Africa, August 2024)

    Again more doubts from South Africa (Mountain Zebra NP, August 26th 2024)

    Hi, Again I am coming back with doubts about a pipit seen in South Africa. This time the bird was seen in Mountain Zebra NP, last August 26th (2024). The habitat was rocky slopes with dispersed scrubs. I guess that it is a Nicholson's pipit, but not sure. Thanks in advance

    Two more birds from Karoo National Park (South Africa, August 24th)

    Here I show you pictures from two birds seen in Karoo NP, South Africa, last August. I guess that pictures 1-3 correspond to Sabota lark, and 4 to 6 to some pipit, but species is difficult for me. Can anybody help me to identify them? Thanks
