Hi Dan,
That is an amazing find.
Check out this link 
- http://elibrary.unm.edu/sora/NABB/v004n02/p0064-p0065.pdf ; - to another 
albinistic Red-tailed Hawk found, observed and banded in southern Marathon 
County (back in 1979) by Don Follens and Ken Luepke. 
 
Thanks for posting your find on wisbirdn.

I started out my birding this morning in the southeastern area of Marathon 
County. I mainly birded along the roadside in the bog along Mission Lake Road. 
Here I saw, from as close as 8 feet away, a singing Blue-headed Vireo. I know 
Blue-headed Vireos were found breeding in this area of county during the 
Breeding Bird Survey 10+ years ago, but this was the first time I've ever 
encountered one during the breeding season here in my home county. Also of 
interest in this bog, seen and/or heard, were; Yellow-bellied Flycatcher, 
Golden-crowned Kinglet, both White-throated and Lincoln's Sparrows, and both 
Nashville and Yellow-rumped Warblers to name a few.

Then, while on my way home, I saw this large white bird sitting up on an 
electrical pole. At first I thought it might be a late Snowy Owl, but after I 
stopped my car to get a better look, it turned out to be a partial albino 
Red-tailed Hawk!! I took several photos of it before it took flight. While in 
flight I could see a few dark flight feathers and one reddish tail feather. But 
other then this, this hawk was very white looking. Visit my flickr.com site to 
see what photos I took.
