Polt Holt's view on this bird:
That's very difficult but the odd looking, partial albino with a few white flight feathers, has a steep forehead & pretty large bill (not as extremely big billed as the birds in Beijing but still hefty with a decent culmen curve). It looks like a Large-billed Crow to me but I'd be cautious as it's undoubtedly agitated & has probably raised its crown feathers to intimidate the Sparrowhawk. Bottom line is that it looks like a Large-billed Crow but I wouldn't be 100% confident.
