– sparrow-sized passerine
\n– nocturnal\/diurnal migrant
\n– often overlooked<\/p>\n

>> FLIGHT >>>>><\/strong><\/p>\n

\n– flight rather slowly, but more confident and less nervous than Meadow Pipit<\/a>
\n– usually alone or in small, very loose flocks<\/p>\n

>> VISUAL ID >>>>><\/strong><\/p>\n

– size between Great Tit<\/a> and Common Chaffinch<\/a>
