What would a 2cy look like at the end of October?
Are there any pics available?

They don't look all that much different from May. Juvenile primaries are something to look out for!

Additionally I have 2 flightshots of the Austrian bird, taken by Thomas Hochebner, the only person who found it worth to see the bird live...
Note the old primaries!

Btw, jizz of this bird does not really remind me on the Tulcea bird...
