Rock Pipit
The Rock Pipit (Anthus petrosus) is endemic to Europe and nests on the rocky coasts of the Kola peninsula and in western Europe northwards from Brittany. It is normally a resident bird in Ireland, Britain and France, but the populations in Scandinavia, the Baltics and Russia moves south in winter, probably to the coastal areas of Western Europe.
Half the world population of rock pipits are in Norway.
