Hello again,

We have now seen a white magpie in the neighbouring property twice.  It 
appears to be completely white, including the beak but yesterday when on 
the ground we were able to see one or two small dark smudges on the 
centre of its back.  The tip of the beak is also dark/off-white and the 
eyes appear to be dark.  It is one of a group of eight. all the others 
being the normal black-backed race.

Barry
