Ringed as pullus at Kanala, Finland on July 01 1999, now in 5cy. Adult fuscus with small size, slender bill, dark upper-parts which turn brown hued when older and worn, lack of moult in the scapulars, wing-coverts and the primaries and small white tips on the outer primaries, which wear away quickly. Note the brown hue on the old central greater coverts. In all respects a typical adult, which hasn't started the basic moult, as all primaries are still old.
