Anthus cervinus
Aug 7 Cape Thompson - A bird of this species was observed
flying over the creek. The rusty red of the
throat was very visible. The bird otherwise resembled
a water pipit but the act was more like that
of the Yellow Wagtail. On the fifth I believe
I saw this species near the camp but the individual
was very shy and I never could get a good enough
look to tell for sure. That bird lacked the rusty
throated.
