nigel_deacon Posted May 21, 2017 Share Posted May 21, 2017 I am afraid it's just a Eurasian mapgie Pica pica with gross feather loss to the body. I have seen this before, but it is fortunately uncommon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Parsons Posted May 21, 2017 Author Share Posted May 21, 2017 Thanks very much, Nigel - that is one of the suggestions that had been made, and I am inclined to think it is correct. don't have access to Derek Goodwin's book on corvids at present, and as you say it is uncommon. Thanks for your time and trouble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
