| Hej Lars,
Tillykke med den nye art og det gode foto af en juvenil Hvidrygget Stenpikker.
Juvenil pga. uldne kropsfjer uden bistråler, superfriske vinger og hale, samt gul mundvig.
En adult hun (eller 2k) ville være helt nedslidt i primo juni.
En juvenil Middelhavs ville være mere gulbrun (ikke så grå) på ryggen, have mere sorte store vingedækfjer med stærkt kontrasterende lyse bræmmer, have en lidt længere hånd og et mere spinkelt næb.
English:
Fine photo of a Finsch's Wheatear in pure juvenile plumage.
The photographer asks if it could be a (juvenile) Black-eared Wheatear, but this species is safely ruled out because of too grey back and too white underparts.
Futhermore the greater coverts are too pale and uniform. The wingtips are slightly too short and the bill too strong.
A Black-eared would be much more buffish in general colour with darker greater coverts with more sharply defined pale edges.
Regards
Peter |
