This handsome chap has been in my garden for a
couple of years but has proved very difficult to photograph until the other day
when he posed outside my (dirty) window. Although there are
plenty of photographs on the net of leucistic blackbirds, I have not found many
from Australia. Even if there are other photographs of similar plumage patterns,
I though he was worth a picture. There is some previous discussion of
blackbirds with similar plumage on the chatline in 2005 (seach for Pinto).
This bird has bred in our garden but unfortunately so did the Pied
Currawongs which made meals for its young of the Blackbird
nestlings.
