Am confused with grassbirds, pipits, and this one... it's smaller than a grassbird, walks fast and has a shorter tail... DSC_1835 by gabsbuluran, on Flickr Camera Nikon D300S Exposure 0.001 sec (1/1250) Aperture f/6.3 Focal Length 400 mm ISO Speed 640 Beanbag, Car Window support

Looks like a Paddyfield Pipit. But not sure.

It is an Oriental Skylark. Pipits' bills are usually fairly thin, and distinctly downcurved. While the culmen of a Lark's bill is often slightly downcurved (such as in this photograph), the overall impression is usually of a short, relatively straight, strong bill.
