We had the same - or a similar - grackle at our feeder last spring and summer (Silver Spring near Sligo Creek). He had one or two pure white tail feathers.

  Upon returning home from work this afternoon I found 60 or so Common Grackle
looting my feeders. One of them had a central tail feather (or feathers)
that was completely white. Has anyone ever observed a grackle with this
abnormal plumage? Any idea of the cause?
