Leucistic Tree Sparrow again

The leucistic Tree Sparrow seen last on 9/12/2016 made a return to my garden today and much as before the light was gloomy. It's good to see that the white plumage hasn't been it's downfall despite the visits of a male Sparrowhawk to the garden. It looks like the many pairs of eyes and warning calls are preventing the hawk from killing, at least in the garden where no evidence has been found.

Added below the sparrow are a couple from Lunan Bay but at low tide, I may return when the ducks are closer inshore.
