I looked out of the kitchen window this morning as I was making breakfast and noticed a male Blackbird, but a very odd one as it had white markings both above and below the eye.

Never seen one of those before I thought and went to look it up in my Book of British Birds. Apparently it was an albino, which I discovered are not that uncommon in gardens. Now the albino Blackbird is normally black with random bits of white plumage which sounds like this little chap alright.

Hopefully he will come back and I will see if I can get a picture to share with you folks.
