Lesser Black-Backed Gull - GREEN [M.ABT] / white

Lesser Black-backed Gull (L.f. graellsii), >8cy, G[M.ABT], leucistic wing coverts

Lesser Black-backed Gull (Larus fuscus graellsii - Dutch integrade), >8th calendar year
Texel, Kelderhuispolder, Gull colony, June 24, 2011. Green M.ABT. Adult Lesser Black-backed Gull in full summer (alternate) plumage.
As can be clearly seen, one greater primary covert in each wing has lost all its pigment. Interestingly, this individual did not show any leucism the previous season.
Leucism in the wing occurs regularly in Lesser Black-backed Gulls, as proven by another individual present in the colony at the same time. See another example here.
(Ring info: ringed June 11, 2007, Kelderhuispolder, Texel, The Netherlands. Sex: male. Age: unknown, after 4th calendar year.)

Kleine Mantelmeeuw (Larus fuscus graellsii - Dutch integrade), na 8de kalenderjaar
Meeuwenkolonie Kelderhuispolder Texel, 24 juni 2011. Groen M.ABT. Adulte Kleine Mantelmeeuw in volledig zomerkleed. Goed te zien is dat in beide vleugels het pigment in één grote handpendekveer totaal verdwenen is. Interessant is dat dit het vorige seizoen niet het geval was bij dit individu.
Leucisme in de vleugels komt regelmatig voor bij Kleine Mantelmeeuwen, wat bewezen werdt door een tweede individu die op dezelfde dag in de kolonie aanwezig was. Zie ook dit voorbeeld.
(Ringdatum: 11 juni 2007, Kelderhuispolder, Texel. Geslacht: man. Leeftijd: onbekend, na 4de kalenderjaar.)

IJmuiden, June 12, 2011. Bruxelles H152497. Adult European Herring Gull, moulting to winter (basic) plumage: P1 and P2 have been shed. Note also the faint mark on the outer web of P4, something which is unusual but apparently within the range of variation. (See also Green MABK).

Found in Stavanger Norway.

Black-headed Gull - WHITE [E5RT] / black

Black-headed Gull, 2cy, W[E5RT]

Black-headed gull (Chroicocephalus ridibundus), 2nd calendar year
Zoetermeer, Benthuizerplas, The Netherlands. June 7, 2011. W[E5RT] (Arnhem 3693457) Second-calendar year Black-headed gulls with an (almost) complete hood (such as this individual) can easily be mistaken for an adult, especially when seen at rest. Indicative for this age though are the brown first-generation feathers: the carpal bar across the lesser and median coverts, the inner tertials, the primaries and especially the tail band.
(Ringing date: June 2, 2010, Benthuizer Plas, Zoetermeer, The Netherlands. Age: pullus.)

Kokmeeuw (Chroicocephalus ridibundus), 2de kalenderjaar
Benthuizerplas, Zoetermeer, 7 juni 2011. W[E5RT] (Arnhem 3693457) Tweede-kalenderjaar Kokmeeuwen met een (bijna) complete kap (zoals bij dit individu) kunnen makkelijk voor een adult aangezien worden, vooral als ze in rust gezien worden. Kenmerkend voor de leeftijd zijn echter de bruine eerste-generatie veren: de band over de kleine- en middelste dekveren, de binnenste tertials, de handpennen, en vooral de staartband.

Black-Headed Gull - WHITE [E8YX] / black

Black-headed Gull, 3cy, W[E8YX], black spots on wings

Black-headed Gull (Chroicocephalus ridibundus), 3rd calendar year
Zoetermeer, Benthuizerplas, The Netherlands, March 12th, 2011. White E8YX. Third-calendar year Black-headed Gull moulting to summer (alternate) plumage.
Interesting individual with black spots on the alula and the primary coverts of P6 and P8. Note also the distinct black mark on the outer web of P9.
(Ring info: metal ring added January 8, 2010, color ring added December 3, 2010, Zoetermeer, The Netherlands. Age: 2nd calendar year.)

Kokmeeuw (Chroicocephalus ridibundus), 3de kalenderjaar
Benthuizerplas, Zoetermeer, 12 maart 2011. Wit E8YX. Derde-kalenderjaar Kokmeeuw ruiend naar zomerkleed.
Interessant individu mt zwarte stippen op de alula en dekveren van P6 en P8. Tevens is er een zwarte vlek op de buitenvlag van P9 zichtbaar.

Lesser Black-Backed Gull - YELLOW [H.501] / black

Lesser Black-backed Gull, 5cy, Y[H.501]

Lesser Black-backed Gull (Larus fuscus), 5th calendar year
Leiden, Maresingel, March 12, 2011. Yellow H.501 Helgoland N006485. Fifth-calendar year Lesser Black-backed Gull, in full summer (alternate) plumage. Note the black markings on the bill.
Last seen in Leiden on October 24, 2010, this gull surprisingly turned up in Leiden once more where it has now been for a week. I would expect this individual to leave for the breeding grounds in Germany soon.
(Ring info: ringed June 30, 2007, Amrum, Odde, Germany. Age: pullus.)

Kleine Mantelmeeuw (Larus fuscus), 5de kalenderjaar
Maresingel, Leiden, 12 maart 2011. Geel H.501 Helgoland N006485. Vijfde-kalenderjaar Kleine Mantelmeeuw in volledig zomerkleed met zwarte markeringen op de snavel.
Dit individu werdt op 24 oktober 2010 voor het laatst in Leiden gezien en is nu opvallend genoeg terug waar hij alweer een week verblijft. Ik verwacht echter dat hij aanstonds naar de broedgebieden in Duitsland zal vertrekken.
(Ringdatum: 30 juni 2007, Amrum, Odde, Duitsland. Leeftijd: pullus.)
