Hi All,
Yesterday, Dec 17th, Ed and Michelle Talbott of the Buchanan County Bird Club 
were called by Michelle's mother, who said she had a strange looking bird at 
her feeder. Ed and Michelle went to investigate and found a beautiful leucistic 
or partial albino White-throated Sparrow.
Ed got video of the bird. My wife, Lynda, and I went back this morning and the 
bird returned to the feeder, where I took the following photos.
