Looks like a Pechora Pipit to me~~ Author: brendank Time: 30/04/2011 23:22
Yes, this is one of at least three Pechora present today.

Great Pechora. Home in on the 'white tram lines' & diagnostic primary projection beyond the tertials.

Based on the dullness of the head and upperparts,the extend of streaking below, and rather buffish underparts I would say that this is subspecies menzbieri which is treated by some as a distinct species, Menzbier's Pipit. Author: brendank Time: 3/05/2011 21:49
What is the status of the two subspecies in Hong Kong? Are most previous birds believed to be the nominate race?
