Meadow pipit

I think this Meadow Pipit is so cute. Look how nicely this little birdy decides to take off while noticing me approaching. You can see its tiny foot up while making a fast run.

Thanks to my faithful reader I was able to find out that this is a Meadow pipit. It is a small passerine bird, which breeds in much of the northern half of Europe and also northwestern Asia. It is migratory over most of its range, wintering in southern Europe, north Africa and southwestern Asia, but is resident in Ireland, Great Britain, and neighbouring areas of western Europe. However, even here, many birds move to the coast or lowlands in winter.

This is a widespread and often abundant small pipit, 14.5–15 cm long and 15–22 g weight. It is an undistinguished looking species on the ground, mainly brown above and buff below, with darker streaking on most of its plumage; the tail is brown, with narrow white side edges. It has a thin bill and pale pinkish-yellow legs; the hind claw is notably long, longer than the rest of the hind toe. The call is a weak tsi-tsi. The simple repetitive song is given in a short song flight.
