African Pipit (1 Viewer)

[Corotauria]

Sorting out my photo's I run into this picture of a pipit. At the time of taking I was not thinking about other possibilities than the very common Grassland Pipit. But now, the bird seems to be very light. I know light forms in Grasslands occur, but I still wanted to find out or this one could be a Tawny pipit (concerning to me, it is that light!).

Mhm, on the net, the picture seems to be darker then at home....

No one who can help me on this one???

It looks like a Tawny to me but I have no experience of Grassland Pipit, and I have no idea what the status of Tawny Pipit is in whatever the country you took the photo in !

A mistake from me. The photo is taken in at Lake Naivasha, Kenya, august this year.
Mhm, and now that I have checked the status of the Tawny (vagrant in Kenya) - I didn't do that before :S - it seems to be logical that it is a Grassland... But, I am open for motivations.
Thanx, Stuart.
