  5. Red-tailed Hawk (leucistic)

    Red-tailed Hawk (leucistic)

    Red-tailed Hawk (Buteo jamaicensis) Leucistic. Same bird I posted a few days ago. The hawk was a ways off so the IQ is not great but I like the view with it banking.

  7. White on black

    White on black

    I think this may have been the only time I saw this particular Blackbird.... he's got white bits all over him!!! There were a few around with the odd white feather, and I'm struggling to see them about now too. TTTW

    Leucistic Gray Catbird

    Leucistic Gray Catbird or...??? Observed for four consecutive days [5/3 TO 5/7/18] at suet feeders in my yard a few miles south of Middletown MD. Undertail coverts do show as rust, seen even more clearly with bins. Rust coloration was also found, though not shown in pics, on the [wing]...

  11. Clay-colored Thrush (leucistic & normal)

    Clay-colored Thrush (leucistic & normal)

    Clay-colored Thrush (Turdus grayi subsp. casius) Sexes similar. The only redeeming quality of this picture is that it shows a comparison between a normal Clay-colored Thrush and this leucistic one under the same lighting condition, which was very poor. Canopy Lodge, El Valle de Antn, Cocl...

  15. Another with white bits

    Another with white bits

    This the is one and only Starling I've seen with white feathering - where on earth do all these leucistic birds come from? Not sure, has it even affected the base of his bill too? I only got two shots and he was gone, never to be seen again. TTTW
  16. White-headed Chaffinch

    White-headed Chaffinch

    ... they have leucistic Chaffinches at Loch of the Lowes too it seems. Just managed to get this one in view - it was the only picture where both of them were sharpish. TTTW It's a lovely day here, so I'm off out. I'll catch up with browsing later on.

  18. Leucistic Red-tailed Hawk

    Leucistic Red-tailed Hawk

    I saw this bird from the highway in Eden Prairie, MN and got a closer view of him from a local side street. Thought it was a Snowy Owl at first, but on closer inspection (and help from this forum), it is a Leucistic Red-tailed Hawk

    Lakescape - 230

    An individual with normal colors ... with one that appears leucistic ... It was a fairly longish day out ... giving slide-show to a group of 20 plus new bird-watching enthusiasts ... And then taking them around ... Good thing is that all of them enjoyed the event to the hilt ...
  22. Leucistic Pale Javan Myna

    Leucistic Pale Javan Myna

    Initially thought I was looking at an albino myna, however as I got closer to the bird, it does not have pink eyes, etc. Therefore, it is a leucistic pale javan myna. any comment?
  23. Leucistic Cardinal

    Leucistic Cardinal

    Spotted this beautiful example of a fully leucistic Cardinal today in my backyard. It's the third visit we know of - hoping it hangs around!
