It just got dumped at my fox bait station with the others . With hindsight, I wish I'd had it done. I've just remembered that I shot a woodie that looked chequered last year as well , but I can't find a pic on my phone. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

We have quite a few crows with white in their wings here ,never seen a rook with it but have seen a brown rook that was shot by a farmer and hung up beside its black brethren .Too far gone to have stuffed .We used to have a blackbird in the garden that had a white head and white flecks to the body .It never seemed to moult like the normal type . Id love to see a fox that was different ,only ever seen the red phase .Just been given a pure white grey squirrel to get set up . Roe deer seem to be fairly widely distributed with two tone colours but despite the numbers here I’ve never seen one myself alive .Seen pics and dead animals but never one alive . Great thread I see a white cock pheasant couple weeks ago , Quote Link to post Share on other sites

paulus 26 Posted January 31, 2023 Report Share Posted January 31, 2023 There were 2 white fox's bolted from a pipe by a Leicestershire hunt a few years ago, One was also dug to by a couple of lads a week or so before in the same area. we had a sparrow for a couple of years who's wings and tail were near enough one white feather and then one normal feather, Looked like Chitty, Chitty, Bang, Bang Lol. There's a Lady i know who lives in Cumbria who has sent me pictures of Bold headed Jackdaws and says they have been around her area for year's. A few white pigeons have been shot around here over the years, Amazing they survive because as has already been said, Things that are different attract attention, I can remember around 20 years ago a bloke who lived up the road from where i lived back then had a flight full of cockatiel's, they ate through the mesh and around 20 or so escaped, They were all staying close to a large willow tree at the back of our garden, In fact i used to feed them, The sparrow hawks cleared the lot over about a 2 week period.
