The Lonely Crow

I just wonder about this crow that I see alone whenever I walk by – Has it been ostracised on account of the colour of its feathers?

It is always on the ground, either on this track for farm vehicles or on the grass verge. There are many rooks and crows, all black, in the trees on the other side of the road but never any anywhere near this poor bird.

I will be looking out for him (or her) every time I go by. Is there any chance you think of there having been hanky-panky between a crow and a magpie to account for its plumage?
