Sex, Age, Comment |
Adult. Aged by lack of whitish edges to the coverts. I'm not sure if the different nuances of the coverts is a simple reflection of worn vs. new adult feathers or if it indicates that it is young adult, 2cy bird. The weak necklace could indicate the latter. A privilege, every year, to have few of these birds visiting and allowing one to come this close. |
