[Taxacom] Albino? Yellow-headed blackbird

[Ken Kinman]

Dear All,
      I'm not sure if the proper term is albino or amelanistic or just 
"white-bodied", but this unusual yellow-headed blackbird near Lubbock, 
Texas, is absolutely stunning.  It is such a standout in the photo flying 
with other blackbirds (redwings and cowbirds), see the link below.  And the 
photo which follows that one shows even more of its unusual markings.  A 
very beautiful and rare bird.
