Observation details

The extent of white on the underwing, lower back and uppertail coverts, plus the extensive barring in the tail all point to the lapponica group. NOTE: this is not the same individual seen 9 years later c. 12 miles to the north, which was of the Siberian group- see checklist S151610207
