Unusual Bird: A different chick a dee
This chick a dee has been showing up at our feeder for some time now. He or she has much more white on the head than all the others. Seems also to get picked on by others

Hi Melinda, I believe that this is leucism. It is partial loss of pigment in an animal resulting in white or pale coloring. Have fun watching the little guy!
