Olive-backed Pipit (Anthus hodgsoni)
Bald Ibis (Geronticus eremita)
A fairly characteristic pipit due to the fresh plumage tones, defined facial pattern and marked breast streaking. Back olive-coloured with only faint streaking. Rump lacks streaking. Usually shows a pale and a black spot on rear cheeks. Legs pinkish, with short hind-claw, similar to Tree Pipit. Similar behaviour as Tree Pipit. Readily enters trees, and will also walk along branches. Flight also similar to Tree Pipit, lacking the stuttering motion of Meadow Pipit.
Sound:Song similar to Tree Pipit, but tempo more even and with a timbre resembling Dunnock. Most often heard on migration is the contact call which (again) is very similar to Tree Pipit, a short buzzing "tzzzeet".

CCLargely unmistakable, even at a distance when bald head is not apparent. Note short legs and short, thick neck without bulbous head. In flight note that the legs are not protruding behind tail, and that the wings usually show 3-4 "fingers". Frequent soaring flight, as opposed to Glossy Ibis.
Sound:Mostly silent. Vocal at breeding ground, where a range of guttural calls can be heard, "yarrp, yarrp" etc.
