==Description== This is a small [[pipit]], with an adult easily identified in the breeding season by its brick-red face and throat. In other plumages, this is an undistinguished-looking species, heavily streaked brown above, with whitish mantle stripes, and with black markings on a white background below. It is very similar in appearance to the [[meadow pipit]], and in the autumn, it much resembles the [[tree pipit]], but has an altogether more striped appearance because of the larger numbers of streaks on the cap, back, flank, rump, and chest. The flight of the red-throated pipit is strong and direct, and it gives a characteristic ''psii'' call as it flies.<ref name=NatureGate>{{cite web |url=http://www.luontoportti.com/suomi/en/linnut/red-throated-pipit |title=Red-throated Pipit: ''Anthus cervinus''|publisher=NatureGate |access-date=2013-12-13}}</ref>
