Google says it's a common blackbird

With that head colour and shape?
Damn, I hoped it was something exciting 😀

It's probably got mites so has lost its head feathers

Or just really stressed raising a load of babies, birds always look a bit knackered this time of year

I sympathise - my hair fell out loads when I stopped breastfeeding..

Oooooh! A balding blackbird! It's adorable.

I have a wood pigeon that visits my garden and has half its feathers missing and those it does have stick out like its been electrocuted!

Poor mum blackbird. All she wants is a quiet coffee in peace.
