Correndera Pipit

The correndera pipit is 14 to 16 cm (5.5 to 6.3 in) long and weighs about 15 to 26 g (0.53 to 0.92 oz). The sexes have the same plumage. Adults of the nominate subspecies have a dusky head with a whitish supercilium, a whitish eye-ring, a thin blackish "moustache", and a blackish streak on the cheek. Their upperparts are dusky with heavy cinnamon-buff streaks and a white streak on each shoulder. Their wings are dusky with white edges on the primaries and buffy white edges on the coverts; the latter show as two wing bars. Voice: The correndera pipit sings during the flight display. One description of its song is a "cheerful, unstructured series of twittering, like fitfit-wrrrruh, fit-frit-oh-frút, and fit-frit-oh-wrrrruh"; the wrrrruh is a "toneless, nasal trill". Another description is "a variable, rich series of gurgling, warbling, and trilling phrases". Its call is "a rising, buzzy tjzee?".
