Albino Jackdaw in Avebury

An albino jackdaw is ruffling feathers in Avebury as people come from far and wide to see the rare bird.

Among the first to spot it was local writer and journalist Andrew Collins, who took a picture of the bird next to a normal coloured jackdaw.

Rob Turner, the county recorder for the Wiltshire Ornithological Society, said it was the first albino jackdaw he had heard of in Wiltshire. He said: “Having said that, birdwatchers are never very interested in mutations like this, so no one keeps any records.”
