Common Raven

Qualicum Beach,BC,Can.

 

There's been two or more white Ravens living in Parksville for quite a few years,maybe ten. They aren't total albinos,which would mean total lack of pigmentation,but incomplete albinos. Incomplete albinos are lacking pigmentation in their skin,feathers,or eyes,but not all three. These Ravens have pigmentation in their eyes,but not their skin or feathers. They've been producing offspring with the same genetic traits for several years now.
