I am trying to get some feedback on the age of the bird seen and photographed on December 5th and 6th. After studying the photo I took yesterday of the open wing I believe it is a HY bird in 1st PreBasic Molt, showing the Molt limit marking the difference between fresh greater covers and old primary covers (Pyle, 1997). You can see the photo in https://flic.kr/p/2mPcgxd Looking forward to your comments. Juan Salas
