Probably 3rd cal. year, as primary moult has reached around mid-primaries, and about 505 of the secondaries have been renewed. This is too extensive for a 2nd cal. year and in line with 3rd cal. year; however, as usual, it is always difficult to select between a normal 3rd cal-year type and a retarded 4th cal. year. But the stage of moult etc. fits 3rd cal. year.
