Blyth's pipit (Anthus godlewskii) is a medium-sized passerine bird which breeds in Mongolia and neighbouring areas of China, Tibet and India .
It is a long distance migrant moving to open lowlands in Southern Asia.
This is a large pipit, but is an undistinguished looking species on the ground, mainly brown above and pale below.
Its flight is strong and direct, and it gives a characteristic "pshee" call, higher pitched than Richard's.
The specific godlewskii commemorates Polish nobleman and field naturalist Victor Godlewski.
