Ringed as pullus at Helsinki, Finland on July 10 1994, now in 10cy. 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. Note the fresh central median coverts.
