pipit id please

[Naturenutz]

I found this bird on the severn estuary this evening,there are alot of meadow pipits around ,but this bird appeared slightly larger with unfimiliar song/notes.
Its probably an overweight meadow pipit , also it appears to have a peach colour under the chin which i did not notice on other birds.Its feet may be muddy as it was on the shoreline.

Rock Pipits Do have some pinkish under parts I would say that this It Could well be one.

I'm finding it very difficult to see this bird as a Rock Pipit (despite the dark looking legs). To me it seems too 'clean' underneath with the streaking too well defined, and too well marked on the head and upperparts. Perhaps it is a Rock Pipit, but I would tend to say that it looked more like a Meadow (or maybe a migrant Tree).

I agree, meadow pipit for me, for the same reasons as Roy states.
