The Wood Pipit is an African pipit species that prefers woodland and savanna habitats, a departure from the more open-country preferences of many other pipits.
Where to spot
Central and East Africa, including countries like Angola, Democratic Republic of Congo, Tanzania, and Zambia. Found in woodlands, miombo savanna, and open forests.
How to spot
Look for it foraging on the ground in more wooded environments. It has a slightly more subdued streaking than typical grassland pipits. Listen for its distinctive song and calls.
When to spot
Year-round resident. Best observed when foraging on the forest floor.

This pipit often forages in the leaf litter under trees, searching for insects, rather than in wide-open grasslands.
