| LBBG 5cy RY9, Missouriweg -
      
      Maasvlakte, the Netherlands, April 29 2002.
       An adult bird ringed left white RY9, ringed
      as pullus at the nest, early July 1998, now in 5cy. Not a strong bird at
      all, with a friendly facial expression indicating this is a female. Note
      the small mirro on p10. The outer primaries show small white tips which
      are worn away already. The white tips, lacking pigmentation, wear away
      quickly.   |
