Anthus campestris
Anthus campestris, commonly known as the Tawny Pipit, is a ground-dwelling bird species found in Croatia's open grasslands, dry meadows, and arid scrublands.
Distinguished by its sandy-brown plumage and characteristic wagtail-like behavior, the Tawny Pipit is well-adapted to its terrestrial habitat. Feeding primarily on insects and small invertebrates, it plays a crucial role in maintaining the ecological balance of its environment. Conservation efforts focused on preserving open grasslands and dry habitats are essential for ensuring the survival of Anthus campestris in Croatia.
Protecting these areas from agricultural encroachment and habitat destruction will help maintain the biodiversity and ecological health of these unique landscapes.
