Snow Bunting, Audenshaw Reservoirs, 15.11.09 (Steve Collins)
Obviously a male bird but ageing seems less easy as the shape of the tip of the tail feathers is not visable enough in any of the images. Judging the longest primary covert in this image however seems to indicate this is a first calender year bird (immature). |
