This is rare phenotype. I asked a biologist about it and it is unknown exactly the percentage of grackles with this finding. This is a Greater Antillean Grackle which is probably the most common bird here. In this pic the iridescent characteristics of its feathers can be seen as well as the white patches.

These are other images I took from this fellow who happens to visit my backyard almost every day.

When I first saw it I though someone had splashed white paint over it or that maybe he fell into a paint container by accident...!
