Dear Tweeters,
If anyone has expertise on the ID of pipits, I would love to hear opinions about a bird that I photographed in Mongolia last month. The photos can be viewed on eBird.
Checklist # S38426208
12 July 2017
hotspot name Khovsgol Nuur (the huge lake up in the north-central part of Mongolia)
Time 0800
The others in the party thought that the bird was an Olive-backed Pipit, but I am pretty sure it's a Tree Pipit.
Anyone care to venture an ID?
Yours truly,
Gary
