(Herring Gulls) in north-west France in Brittany
Photographs
taken 6th August 1991 at Roscoff.
New P5 showing with broken black band, P6-P7 missing in moult, P8-P10 bunched tips.
Appears to have P1-P3 new, missing P4-P5 in moult and old P6-P10. Quite dusky still but base of bill is no longer black.
Comment: the adults appear to be similar to those in south-west France.
