Short Description:

Tree Pipits are small, migratory birds belonging to the pipit family. They measure around 14–15 cm in length with a wingspan of approximately 22–25 cm. Their plumage is primarily brown with streaks on the breast and flanks, a pale belly, and distinctive white outer tail feathers.

Far far away, behind the word mountains, far from the countries Vokalia and Consonantia, there live the blind texts. Separated they live in Bookmarksgrove right at the coast

Tree Pipits are predominantly found in the northern regions, including the Himalayan foothills and the mountainous areas of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and Gilgit-Baltistan. They inhabit open woodland, scrubland, and grassy areas.

During the breeding season, Tree Pipits are known for their aerial displays where males ascend high into the air and then parachute down while singing. They primarily feed on insects, foraging on the ground and occasionally catching prey in mid-air. These birds migrate southwards during the winter months, often venturing into southern Pakistan.
