Richard's Pipit or Upland Pipit ?

These pix are of Upland Pipit.

The spots on the back are heavy, and the bill is short and deep. It also shows a thick neck.

I thnk the bill looks longer in these pix because this is a recently fledged bird, which still has the baby skin around the edge of the bill.
