Any ideas? At first glance I thought partially albino Blackbird, but the bill is like a banana! I'm thinking Mynah or something of that ilk

Thanks

Looks like a partial leucistic Blackbird, We had a similar one that used to visit our garden a few years ago.

you were right with your first guess, the bill looks bigger due to the blurredness of the photo and I suppose the white head plays a trick on our eyes.

Thanks guys, I wondered if I was seeing things. The original image was much smaller. Perhaps the effect on the bill was exaggerated by blowing it up. Very odd photo.
