Berthelot's Pipit

Anthus berthelotii

Berthelot's Pipit (Anthus berthelotii) is a small passerine bird found in the Canary Islands, Madeira, and the Azores. It has a slender body, streaked brown upperparts, and pale underparts with streaking on the breast. This species is known for its distinctive song, often delivered from a low perch. Berthelot's Pipits are typically found in open habitats such as grasslands, agricultural fields, and coastal dunes. They forage on the ground for insects and seeds. While not currently considered threatened, habitat loss and invasive species pose potential risks to their populations.
