Hello,

We have spotted this Greenfinch a few times in our garden, it appears healthy but has a different colouring on it's head.

Wondered what was causing this?

Many thanks

Clare

Hello again,

Thanks for viewing my post.

Leucism has been suggested by a relative who is an experience birder. It's a condition that prevents melanin appearing in feathers.

Seems a possible fit.

Many thanks

Clare
