Larus fuscus fuscus 2cy CP48 June 12 2007, Tampere, Finland. Pictures: Hannu Koskinen.
2cy Larus fuscus red "CP48" is a classic nominate fuscus, as it has replaced all the feathers once at the wintering quarters. The median coverts are blackish, fresh, as are some scapulars and these feathers are probably already replaced for 3rd gen feathers.
