User's notes

I saw a pair of Australasian Pipits. One flew off into the field to the east while one looked at me from the road before flying to a nearby fence where it stayed for a few minutes. Its head markers were less distinct than an adult’s leading me to believe that it was most likely an immature bird. It stayed on the fence wire for a little while, occasionally looking at me before it also flew into the field.
