Of course there was the day I was birding over on the east shore of
Westernport,  and scanning a paddock in hopes of
Orange-bellied/Blue-winged parrots.  Not a sausage, just some Magpies
and a white plastic bag...  Then the plastic bag turned into a leucistic
Magpie with almost no black colour at all.
