    Siberian Pipit (?) from Pakistan

    Hello! I need feedback on this Pipit that we think is Siberian Pipit because of indistinct marking on the back (as cf. to stronger markings on Meadow Pipit) and paler lores (as cf. to darker in wintering Rosy Pipit). It is much darker than the 'blakistoni' Water Pipit in its range too. On the...

    Ballykelly Marsh, Northern Ireland (June) - rock pipit?

    I'm somewhat new to recognizing pipits, so go easy on me :) The bulkier bill and darker reddish legs are suggestions towards rock pipit in my opinion. Two photos:

    Pipit in Germany--Gärtringen

    Hello, I have a flight shot of a pipit taken by a birding buddy of mine. The pipit was calling when it flew over (see attached recording, bad quality). We narrowed it down to Water or Meadow Pipit. Both species should occur in that area. Photos taken 3rd December 2023 in Gärtringen, Germany...

    Wagtail/Pipit from Netherlands

    Hi everyone, Having a hard time identifying this juvenile(?) wagtail/pipit I saw yesterday at Driemanspolder, Zoetermeer, Netherlands. I feel like it looks like a weird cross between a White Wagtail (Motacilla alba), a Western Yellow Wagtail (M. flava), and a Meadow Pipit (Anthus pratensis)...

    Meadow Pipit? (23th of October 2022, Dutch Coast, dunes)

    Two weeks ago while walking along the Hondsbossche Zeewering (part of the Dutch coast, dunes, Noord-Holland) I saw and heard many Meadow Pipits. But in case of one Pipit I'm not sure if it was a Meadow Pipit, a Tree Pipit or a Red-Throated Pipit. (Red-Throated being very rare obviously and not...
