2 images: LBBG 12cyKR7 August 12 2004, Westkapelle, the Netherlands (51.33N-03.25E).
Rather dark grey individual compared to local
Dutch intergrades. Ringed on July 07 1993 at Maasvlakte near Rotterdam, the
Netherlands, now in 12cy. Active moult in the outer median and lower lesser
coverts, and fresh innermost median coverts. Large mirror on P10, yellow iris
without speckling, red orbital ring, red on the lower mandible, black streak on
the upper mandible, yellow legs. All tail-feathers still old. Exact primary
moult stage not recorded, but probably active moult in the inner primaries.
After some years, orange pigmented rings may turn brown.
