Pat, having a marked bird of any kind is interesting, but not  
particularly remarkable nor rare, especially in blackish birds, where  
the light areas show up especially well.  As an example, I recall  
someone reporting quite a while ago about crows with white wings, and  
someone else in Cambridge recently (winter?) had a crow that was  
whitish all over, I think.  And the "anting" behaviour is also quite  
widespread and frequent in a variety of birds.  Cheers from Jim in  
Wolfville
