The grand finale! Both wings show the dark primary coverts and the substantial moon on P10 and absence of a moon on P9. The right wing shows good feather detail on primaries including "tongues" reaching well down toward the feather tips on the right wing (P7,P8. And the tail also shows very little marking except for on big spot. The right side also shows dark feathering on the tertials characteristic of both 3rd and 4th year (per Howell).
