The Yellow-breasted Pipit is an African species, notable for its bright yellow underparts, a distinctive feature among pipits. It inhabits high-altitude grasslands.
Where to spot
Southern Africa, particularly in high-altitude grasslands of South Africa, Lesotho, and Eswatini.
How to spot
Look for its bright yellow breast and belly contrasting with a streaky brown back. It forages on the ground in open grasslands. Its calls and display flights are important for identification.
When to spot
Year-round resident. Best observed during the breeding season when males are more conspicuous.
This pipit is sometimes considered a member of the longclaw genus (Macronyx) due to its robust size and bright coloration, though it retains its pipit-like characteristics.
