JTaylor91 Posted June 25, 2019 Author Report Share Posted June 25, 2019 Just now, twenty said: Unusual, but nicely marked...............would you shoot it....? I think it would be frowned upon at the very least in the local park. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WelshMike Posted June 27, 2019 Report Share Posted June 27, 2019 I shot one a couple of years ago that was virtually white. It was still capable of poking holes in the silage clamp sheet so I was very non discriminatory. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
figgy Posted July 4, 2019 Report Share Posted July 4, 2019 Seen a few jackdaw fledgeing's this year with white patches also one blackbird full grown with patches. Wonder if the morphs are breeding the gene more in recent years. Where they would have succumb to predation in the past. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where they would have succumb to predation in the past. With the increase number of predators (RSPB figures) I would have thought the opposite? Just my take on it.
