Re: Hybrid or pure?
Hallo Jan thanks for your reply. Surely it's closest to Herring, structurally especially. It just shows an unusual combination of tertial and greater covert pattern, which, in this combination, resembles Caspian. It's also rather long-winged compared to our local birds but this could well be a winte...

Hybrid or pure?
This is an old one from Amsterdam, 24-12-10. Can this still be classified under variation within Herring or should I think of influence of Caspian?
