Ringed as pullus at Punkah, Finland on July 04 1993, now in 11cy. A representative for the adult fuscus by mid-July. Most striking are the small size (probably a female), the slender bill, the red gonydeal spot which normally doesn't exceed on the upper mandible, the dark upper-parts which turn brown hued when older and worn, the lack of moult in the scapulars, wing-coverts and the primaries and the small white tips on the outer primaries, which wear away quickly. The basic moult hasn't started yet in July 2003, as all primaries, P1-P10 are still old. August 12 2002 this bird had P1 missing (PMS = 1).
