Second calendar year. Banded with white text on blue on right leg: V.NLO. Metal band on left leg. Didn't pay attention to the bird in the field, and only have this photo. Mostly looks like a Herring, but the rather pale head and underbody plus the greater coverts that for a large part have solid colored centers make me think it could be a hybrid. It seems too fresh in plumage and too well-marked to resemble a classic Caspian. The stout look, however, could be a better match if there was a mix with Yellow-legged included. Will have to see what the bander has to say about it. |
