		<description>Hi Trisha,
I&#039;ve just had a good read around your website.  It has really filled me with joy to see someone writing about our birds and obviously having a real enthusiasm for these wonderful birds.  Keep up the good work, I&#039;ll be returning to catch up with what has been happening in your garden.  Steve.</description>

		<description>Sorry I have been so long replying.  I have had a little technical trouble with Bird Table News, but it is sorted now

I think the opinion is that white feathers in blackbirds means an imbalance of some sort.  It could be a sign of an aged bird, the bird has had an injury and the feathers have now grown back as they should.  It can also be a sign of lack of correct proteins in their food 
If you have a minute click this link and read an article - http://birdtablenews.com/2009/02/some-reasons-for-birds-with-white-feathers/

If poor diet is one cause then it could effect many birds if food is scarce.

		<description>i just saw a white tailed blackbird at my feeder. First one i’ve ever seen. It was the size of a grackle/blackbird and had a pure white tail no other markings. I have also searched for info on this bird with no success. Is it an actual species or an anomaly? I live in Ontario, Canada. Are they actually called a “white tailed blackbird”?</description>

		<description>This past week I have had the fun of watching, what to me looks like a black bird with a long white tail. I did get a few photo&#039;s of it, I hope to get more tomorrow that are clearer. What a neat bird to see! 
I live south of mason city, Iowa. Is there any way for me to post a photo?</description>
