Very interesting.  Note how its eye is black.  A true albino should have a red or pink eye.  Unless the eye just looks black because it is on the shaded side of the bird.

Good evening all,

 

Gil Pfitzner, a colleague from CSIRO, photographed this Willie Wagtail this afternoon somewhere in Evatt. It is the first one I have ever seen (as a photograph).

 

Cheers,

 

Mark
