Description
LEUCISTIC HUMMINGBIRD by Lynn Bauer - A rare near-white hummingbird hovers against yellow bokeh created by the blurring fall leaves in the background. this is a rare sighting, and one that I was so pleased to be able to capture. I believe this is a luecistic Anna's hummingbird. Luecistic hummingbirds are similar to albino hummingbirds as they are missing the normal color pigments in their feathers. The difference being that albinos will have pink eyes, beaks and feet. But, luecistic's eyes, beaks and feet remain black. I have taken thousands upon thousands of pictures of hummingbirds over the years, and this is the first luecistic hummingbird i have encountered!
Taken in a back yard garden in Southern California.
