Australasian pipit
The Australasian pipit (''Anthus novaeseelandiae'') is a fairly small passerine bird of open country in Australia, New Zealand and New Guinea. It belongs to the pipit genus ''Anthus'' in the family Motacillidae.
It was formerly lumped together with the Richard's, African, Mountain and Paddyfield pipits in a single species: Richard's pipit, ''Anthus novaeseelandiae''. Some authors split the Australasian pipit further into two species: Australian pipit (''Anthus australis'') in Australia and New Guinea and New Zealand pipit (''Anthus novaeseelandiae'') in New Zealand.
==Description==
It is a slender bird, 16 to 19 cm long, and weighs about 40 grams. The plumage is pale brown above with dark streaks. The underparts are pale with streaks on the breast. There is a pale stripe over the eye and dark malar and moustachial stripes. The long tail has white outer-feathers and is often wagged up and down. The legs are long and pinkish-brown while the bill is slender and brownish.
It has a sparrow-like ''chirruping'' call and a drawn-out ''tswee'' call.
