Photo 11: Second winter LBBG, October 14 2001, Westkapelle, the Netherlands.

A pretty dark brown individual with a warm brown hue in the coverts. Most of the lower lesser covert bar has been shed and new 3^rd generation feathers are growing in. The median coverts have been replaced by predominantly grey feathers recently. As in many 2cy LBBG, a single tertial is plain grey, while the others have a very dark centre.
