The Meadow Pipit Anthus pratensis, is a small passerine bird which breeds in much of the northern half of Europe and also northwestern Asia, from southeastern Greenland and Iceland east to just east of the Ural Mountains in Russia, and south to central France and Romania. It is very common in Iceland, but a very difficult bird to photograph due to it´s speed and behaviour. It seldom gives a chance for a good photo.
