Today (6/9) I saw what appeared to be a young albino European Starling. The
bird was a little more cream colored than a pure, bright white. It was
following an adult starling and food begging. The normal looking adult
starling was feeding it.
The albino had dark eyes and a more normal leg color to that of the adult
starling. The near white color was uniform over almost all feathering.
I have seen many albinos during many years. This is my first albino
starling. Mostly they have been robins and blackbirds.
The birds were feeding at the carwash at the interesection of Weaver Pike
and Industrial Park Drive.
Let's go birding.....
