The yellow tufted pipit or African rock pipit (Anthus Crenatus) is a small-sized, passerine bird that is native to South Africa and Lesotho. The yellow tufted pipit is commonly found in mountain terrain, and they create their habitats in high-altitude shrub-land, grassland, and rocky areas. The yellow tufted pipit is identified by its brown and gray feathers. The bird has a white-gray eyebrow and yellow markings within its wings and stomach. The call of the yellow tufted pipit allows the bird to stand out from other pipit species. The bird produces a repeated “whee-tsrreeu” that is loud and high-pitched. The yellow tufted pipit has a life expectancy ranging from two to three years old.[citation needed]
