	Meadow Pipit (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-23)
		Meadow Pipits are relatively common inhabitants of the heather moorland on Cannock Chase.
		Both birds take off on short song flights, but Tree pipits will usually launch from a favoured treetop perch which they will generally return to, whereas the Meadow Pipit will usually launch from nearer the ground and will not generally return to a specific point.
		Meadow Pipits are largely insectiverous, so the summer months (when insect life is at its peak on the chase) are a time of plenty, for us humans, the insect population can be a bit overwhelming as we wander along with clouds of flies in attendance!

		BTO - Breeding Birds of the Wider Countryside: Meadow Pipit
		Meadow Pipits are partial migrants and conditions on the Iberian wintering grounds have been linked to the decline, as have losses of marginal land from parts of the breeding range (Gibbons et al.
		Moorland, the key Meadow Pipit habitat, was not covered well by the CBC, leading to some doubt about the significance of the early results for this species, but BBS now provides more representative monitoring.
