Leucistic Village Weaver – Roy & Steve
I think Arnia is correct. It would be a valuable record for you to upload to the ADU Virtual Museums at http://vmus.adu.org.za (project Birds with Odd Plumages)
It has been seen flying round the estate for a month now. Pity we cannot see the eye colour very well.
Looks like it might be a leucistic or albinistic Village Weaver. There is also some feather loss so maybe it is not too healthy?
