Photo 8: LBBG 3cy, June 17 2001, Missouriweg, Maasvlakte, the Netherlands. 

A straightforward second summer (3cy) LBBG, with the common moult strategy in the upper-parts, though slightly advanced in having most coverts moulted. A grey saddle is not very obvious because many lesser coverts are already moulted to adult-like feathers. Furthermore, the older 2^nd generation feathers (most in the outer wing coverts) are not as boldly patterned, lacking the brown-white pattern created by bars or deep notches in the fringes.
Note the jet-black 2^nd generation outer primaries, without tips and no mirror on p10. The tail has an obvious black-white blocked pattern. 
Tertials 1 and 3 are grey and worn, #2 and #4 to #6 are bleached brown, worn at the fringes. The inner 3 greater coverts are grey and worn; from greater covert #4 outwards they are all brown and worn. Most of the median coverts are grey and worn, with a few 2^nd generation feathers, which are extremely worn and bleached and a few are currently growing and mid grey coloured, as in adult LBBGs. The lesser coverts are mixed 2^nd and 3^rd generation feathers and active moult is in progress. Most of the mantle and scapulars are grey.
