Similar to the grassland pipit, the long-billed pipit is darker, stands more erect than the grassland pipit and has buff outer tail feathers. It prefers rocky or more barren habitat. The top bird was in the Mt. Meru Forest (2-22); the 2nd row, Lengijave (2-22). The next four photos were taken in the Usambaras (7-11), courtesy of Valéry Schollaert.
