Wow! That is a beautiful bird!

I have not seen that color in a robin and it's interesting how it's chest stayed red.

[Kenu in reply to falalalala]

Maybe his just the white sheep of the family 😆😜

Thank you for sharing the incredible picture! Have you seen others? Curious what an ornithologist would say? Why would I remember that name when I can't remember what I had for dinner! Have you sent pic to anyone to study. University of CA at Davis CA has a world famous Veterinary School.

No I haven’t. This is the first I have seen one? Kinda cool. Ken 🐾🐾

Kenu Lovely photo! Was that picture recently taken in your neighborhood? I will need to keep my eyes open for striking wild life in my neck of the woods. Thank you for sharing.

Amazing!

I have never seen an albino bird though I have seen many just plain white birds. This one is really pretty. I wonder if his feather shine like other birds? I wonder if he is harder to see than our 'normal' robins? I wonder if he makes the same chirps? I wonder if the offspring of this bird will be albino, too? Thank you, Kenu, for sharing this with us.

I knew mammals and reptiles could be albino but it never crossed my mind that trait could be in birds as well. Thanks for posting the photo.

What an amazing picture you captured!! It is most likely a leucistic robin, since it still has a red breast. Leucism is a partial lost of pigmentation. There is a possum that comes around my house that is leucistic and has patches of white all over its body.
