Many years ago I saw a completely white (no other colour at all) r-b finch
among other normal birds in a place far from urban area. Philip           
                  At the northern end of the Jerrabomberra Wetlands
boardwalk this morning I
saw a group of Red-browed Finches, one of which had a white chest, belly
and wing edges. The face and bill suggested a bird moulting into adult
plumage, but the white markings seemed most unusual.

I managed a poor quality distant photo before the flock flew off.

Any suggestions?

Regards,
Leo.
