Plain Chachalaca Not Looking So Plain by Debra Martz
I've seen many Plain Chachalacas while birdwatching in the Rio Grande Valley of Texas, but it was a surprise to see this leucistic one on my last visit in February 2025.

El leucisme és una condició genètica que provoca una pèrdua parcial o total de la pigmentació en les plomes de les aus. El exemplar de la foto és un estornell vulgar (sturnus vulagaris) amb un leucisme parcial.

Leucistic! Here is a photo of my favorite bird, our resident Leucistic Wild Turkey. I’m awaiting her return this spring.

As far as I'm aware, there are currently no plans to erect a commemorative monument or plaque for Snowy, despite her unique appearance and profound impact on Adelaide Zoo. If you also think she deserves a tangible testament to her lasting legacy, please sign this petition:

I dedicate this special video to Snow White "Snowy" the Meerkat, who passed away on 31st October. As a meerkat enthusiast who spent years dreaming of meeting her in-person before finally being able to last year, the news of her death was heartbreaking. I'm forever grateful for the time I managed to spend with her, and to all the zoo staff and volunteers at ⁠ for ensuring Snowy's life was as long and happy as possible. May she Rest In Peace 🤍

A couple of out-of-the-ordinary critters, today at the Marine Nature Study Area, NY. Prairie Warbler and leucistic Goldfinch

Prairie Warbler foraging among the leaves of a shrub. "Adult males are bright yellow below with heavy black streaks on the flanks. A black eyeline and a black semicircle under the eye mark the yellow face. Males often have a chestnut patch on the back and a dark spot on the side of the neck. Females and immatures are similar but paler, with a grayish head and broken white eyering." (AllAboutBirds).

Leucistic American Goldfinch foraging on a dirt path. Dark pigmentation on the wings and tail is replaced with white.

American Robin exhibits leucism: a partial loss of pigmentation creating this otherworldly white sheen, as if it were carved from marble. One in 30,000 American Robins is leucistic.

A bird that is ordinarily much darker is here the color of skim milk.

@FennecEveryHr that's not a #fennec but a #leucistic #squirrel!

A Canada Goose swimming on a lake. The coloration pattern on its head is unusual, with more white feathers close to the bill and a black eye line. It may be leucistic.

Black-phase Eastern Grey Squirrels are very common here, but this little friend I spotted last month was the first time I'd seen a piebald squirrel! Uploaded to iNaturalist and its Amazing Abberants project.
