About These Birds
Australian Pipit
The Australian Pipit is a ground-dwelling songbird found in open grasslands and farmland across Australia. It has streaked brown plumage typical of pipits and walks along the ground feeding on insects and seeds. Its taxonomic status has been revised, with some authorities treating it as a distinct species from the Australasian Pipit.
