Щеврик довгоногий Anthus pallidiventris

A tall, relatively long-billed, stilt-legged pipit with a noticeable moustache stripe and limited streaking on the chest. Olive-gray overall with a plain back. Found in bare and open areas in west-central Africa; the only pipit likely to be encountered in the lowlands in its range in the summer months. May occur with other pipits, especially in winter, but note the very long legs, the limited streaking on the chest, and the plain back. Song is a variable sequence of musical notes and calls, and birds will also give a “chuwee!”
