Hi again, Steve!
If I'm right about the bird being albinistic, then I should add that such birds
are very rare.
A few years back I sold some framed photos, of the albinistic red neck grebes
that I found, to an ornithologist. He told me that he'd studied grebes, as a
speciatly, for 30 years and never seen such a bird!
So, if I'm right, you are a lucky man, indeed!
Sadly, such birds (an animals) suffer a much higher mortality rate, for they
lack the colour meant to camouflage them, when it's needed.
David.
