This guy looks like he was on the losing end of a fight. From the side, it appears that he has a hole in his head (not a PS trick). However, he seemed to be doing fine and hung out at the feeder for awhile before flying away.

GaryFairhead Cream of the Crop More info | May 07, 2006 16:22 | #4 Looks pretty rough but I am wondering if he is going through a molting ( moulting?...not sure how to spell it). I have seen Bluejays lose all their head feathers and then they grow back...they look awful for a couple of weeks. Gary Fairhead C/C welcome .....

Not that good a pic but this is what happens when they get mites. They lose their head feathers. Damn odd looking. 7D MKII ■ 10-22 ■ 15-85 ■ 28-135 ■ Σ 50-150 ■ 70-200 f4L ■ 100-400L ■ 580EX II
