Hi Woody!

Still waiting for the wisdom they promised would be worth getting old for.

It's LD, but I'll let it go this time.

But, but, I only missed it by one key.

Zitting Cisticola (Cisticola juncidis) by Paolo Dolina, on Flickr

Very small, with a distinctive short, rounded tail with conspicuous spots at the tip. Body sandy-colored below, streaky above. Breeding males have a dark bill and crown. Found in open grasslands, meadows, marshes, and agricultural areas. Most readily detected by its repetitive and monotonous song, given from either a perch or in an undulating song flight. Song varies across wide distribution, ranging from evenly-paced squeaky “tsik, tsik” of African and European birds to the fast dry ticking of Southeast Asian birds.
