P-robert,
compared to your previous pic, the heuglini, notice in the first bird here, the more advanced plumage where a majority of the covert and scapulars are second generation feathers, which is more in line with barabensis. Others as Lou mentioned.

Thank you, it's very good to give explanations. It helps to understand things and progress. It's a little finality

So the first would be barabensis ?
