which pipit ? (1 Viewer)

[COLG]

This pipit was mooching about a small island outside the Sandgrounder hide at Marshside . My question is...is it a meadow pipit ? (there's plenty around there) a water pipit (it was by the water ) or a rock pipit ( Marshside is on the coast and it was amongst the rocks ) . Your expert identification skills would be much appreciated .

a damp looking meadow pipit for me though not getting a clear view of the hind claw and it does look a bit unstreaked on the flanks (thinking poss tree pipit) but no think i will go with meadow

Yes, a very soggy and worn adult Meadow Pipit...check out the very faded primaries.
