Mew Gull Larus canus canus; heinei; kamtschatschensis; brachyrhynchus

(last update: March 12, 2012)

Mew Gull canus 2CY, October 22-23 2016, Grou, the Netherlands.

Some brown in tertials and MC, together with brown primaries lacking obvious white tips age this bird as 2CY. Despite this age, rather white-headed by October (maybe eastern origin?).
