Albino baby long tailed tit (1 Viewer)

Hello all

I saw this baby long tailed tit in the garden earlier - I think it is albino as I cannot find any other pictures of white LTTs. I watched it for half an hour and saw adult LTTs feeding it. After a while I had to leave and it is no longer there although I think it must be somewhere around as I can see the parents and hear them calling.

Is this an unusual bird to see as an albino? I hope it will be ok.

With those red eyes, I've got to assume it's a true albino.

What a spectacular find of this beautiful juvie.
 
I don't know how I missed this but oh my!

If they weren't cute enough in normal state, this is really cute. I hope it has a long, happy life.
 
What a charming ball of cotton!!! :bounce: I've never seen one like this, it's like a tiny cuddle toy!!!

A million thanks for sharing!!! :t:
