Here, the bird from Westkapelle, 2009-10-01.
Note the ringed intermedius (?) at the side....

In flight, p1-p10 turned out to be present and worn.

It seems the wrong birds in this picture are ringed!

A correction Theo, p1-p2 are new, p3 is dropped and p4-p10 are old primaries. Personally I think that Lesser Black-backed Gulls which show at these date a primary moult as on this individual not certainly can rule out from (very) norther breeding
intermedius

Difficult to say, but the prim covs do not stand out as being fresher in the inner wing.
Besides I see something of an edge next to the fresh p2, which may be a worn or broken p3...

But fully agree on the problem of northern Norway birds.
Certainly since we saw more than 1 bird then and 4 yesterday. They show the build of a non-fuscus but
have moult-scores as fuscus, for example the ringed bird..

More birds ringed in northern-Norway are read in Israel (on the site mentioned in the other topic).
Mixed colony? Or mixed migration route?

Ik kwam nog een leuke link tegen met info (broedsucces, verpreiding, terugmeldingen etc) van Noord-Noorse kleine mantels.
De vogel van gisteren kwam ook uit de studiekolonie in Horsvær die in dit artikel wordt vermeld.

A lot of fuscus on passage this year. Not only three ringed birds in Westkapelle, but plenty of unringed birds as well. This one's from IJmuiden from today.
