Hi Alan
Leucistic apparently is a trait that all birds can 'suffer' from. I have an idea from somewhere in the dark recesses that his may not be a Blackbird. Cant remeber why but last year someone did suggest that a similar pic i took was 'a n other' type.
Poss send this to the RSPB for identification??
Cracking pic though. We hav esome round we are but with nothing like the amount of white.
Regards
Paul
