I think you do get odd things happening in nature.!!! We had a regular blackbird that had a streak of white.

Hope the poor sparrow doesnt get 'picked on' for being different.

We have a little pair of blue wrens that visit our garden regularly. Every spring they bring a new family. I love to see them.
