A report came in to work this morning of a white crow on the roof of the Crown and Anchor pub at Mixenden, this was formely the Hebble Brook. The bird was of course the resident white crow which has been around the Shaking House area for many years. Perhaps some one could comment on first sightings ?
A similar bird at Queensbury has been around, to my knowledge for at least 12 years firstly at Foxhill then, Chat Hill area and more recently around the Sandbeds area of the village.
Also several of the crows that have bred in the Foxhill area in the last few years have either white tails or white wing bars. Must be something in the water up here !
