Arizona Ridgenose Rattlesnake (Crotalus willardi ssp. willardi)Observer
herper47Description
A 1967 snapshot in time, back before species protection and the TNC preserve. Per Kauffeld-inspired reverential respect, we carefully photographed and released these two specimens---which were found within 100 feet of each other. Golden memories....

Red-winged Blackbird
near Stewardson, Illinois
1 June 1989
I'm posting this record just for the general interest of a Red-winged Blackbird with one white wing. Whether a partial albino, or a partial leucistic bird, I'm not sure. A local farmer told my wife and me that this bird had been on his farm for three summers. The bird left in the fall with the other Red-wingeds and came back in the spring. I watched it for about 30 minutes. It vocalized like any other Red-winged BB and interacted with other Red-wingeds normally. It was pretty flashy to see in flight, however. Three shots posted. These images scanned from old color slides.

loves_ravensDescription
leucistic hawk. Just north of Globe on AZ 188.
Fantastic and lucky to see on our trip to NE side of Lake Roosevelt this beautiful hawk. I thought it was a barn owl or white owl of some sort, but no, it's a hawk.
It flew from one pole to another as we followed it to get the shots and then few off into the desert.

I guess it's an an individual that escaped from captivity with albinism. Maybe a Mandarin Duck hybrid.

I couldn't ID this bird (it looks very much like a Ruddy Duck in all ways but color), and so I posted it to the slocobirding group message board and Tom Edell explained that it is a melanistic Ruddy Duck. (Thanks, Tom!)

There's always a huge flock of /Anas platyrhynchos/ here. This single male individual has always stood out from the rest due to its lack of colour. It has also a yellow ring on one of its feet.
