Saturday: Blackbird with White Feathers

Temperature up in positive numbers today, 5°C late afternoon.
We’ve also had rain showers and forecast for milder weather over next week.
For many years I’ve noticed some of our male blackbirds have white feathers on their heads but this morning I couldn’t believe the bird in today’s Blip, so much white on different parts of the body.
The condition is called “leucism”, more information - https://www.gardenwildlifehealth.org/portfolio/plumage-abnormalities/
Relaxing day today.
Phone chat with my Big Sister Margaret this afternoon.
To finish the lazy day we had an Indian takeaway and watched “Notting Hill” …
Happy weekend everyone :-)) xxxx xxx xx
Nos da pawb / goodnight all xx
