I am posting this for a birder in the county who is not on the VA-bird
listserve. If you have questions please contact me off list. I can
forward a photo, if requested, or put you in touch with the birder.

Sighting Report:
A leucistic hummer (presumably a Ruby-throated) has been appearing at a
bird feeder in the county. It has been seen from the 11th through today
(this morning). The bird has been spotted frequently over the last few
days. Several photos have been taken and it is clear that this is a
leucisitic bird. Bird was all white, except gray-black area on upper
wing and under tail. Black eyes, gray-black beak and feet.
