About the Pechora Pipit
The Pechora pipit (Anthus gustavi) is a small passerine bird which breeds in the East Palearctic tundra and densely vegetated areas near river banks ranges from the Pechora River to the Chukchi Peninsula. It also breeds in Kamchatka and the Commander Islands, and with a disjunct population much further south in northeastern China and southeastern Siberia. It is a long-distance migrant, moving in winter to Indonesia. Rarely in September and October, the Pechora pipit may be observed in western Europe. The species was first described by Robert Swinhoe in 1863. There are two subspecies: Anthus gustavi gustavi Swinhoe, 1863 — Arctic shrub tundra across northern Siberia Anthus gustavi menzbieri Shulpin, 1928 — Temperate southeastern Siberia, northeastern China, in the Ussuri and lower Amur river basins
