Hello,

belated welcome to Birdforum!

Thats a Meadow Pipit. Ignoring similar Tree Pipit (doesnt occur in winter) and a rare Red-throated Pipit (both species can be eliminated by flank streaking and head pattern), please note
  • quite uniform brownish colouration, paler on underparts
  • heavily streaked belly and washed striped back
  • long tertials
