The way it was acting, i wouldnt have said it was young, it was feeding heavily... Well, i didnt think it perched correctly for a pipit, but the angle of the shot may be decieiving. Also on closer examination the flecks are easily visable....Who's to say, its a hard guess, but maybe thats what bird it is.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
runforyourlife 361 Posted May 17, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 17, 2011 well, we cant agrue on this one, lol. We will have to go with that, unless i shive through my pics and find another shot of it at a different angle. Or until another months time and i will see if i can recapture the bird for another pic.... Would you like me to put up a better pic of the bird flying away in the other post?

Yes, as it was a bit of a tricky one, ...especially for someone who has lead such a sheltered life as myself... lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
