“C” symbol means that the information is complete. Symbol means that the file contains only text without images.
Caution! The species-descriptions and illustrated plumages of different sexes and ages are based only on “wildlife”-birds from Aragon/NE-Spain. Regarding breeding populations in other parts of Europe, we cannot exlude that there are sex- & age-differences and variations in colour, pattern and moult-stages.
