Observation details
NOTES: Head pattern: the pale collar not very prominent (especially in the first pic) and does not extent up to chin. White oracular patch quite extensive, and the dark eyeline is thin behind the eye. The fingers (primaries) of wings are dark. These factors support Montagu's, probably second winter bird. Additional Notes : Looks like a second year bird than a juvenile due to slightly more paler secondaries, moult etc. These are difficult to separate compared to Juveniles and Adults - The overall pattern of white in the face indicates Montagu's and the ear coverts and the pale border are not that prominent - The barrings are tough at this age group
