The White Zombie

[Ketchn]

ever notice how some stuff is right there in black and white
and not vague by any stretch of the imagination
and then someone asks something like are you sure that is a black crappie ?
and I say well if you look closer at it you can clearly see it is not a white crappie .
the they go off on the "expert" thing and count fin rays and look confused
even when just the coloration and patterns on the fish are totally different
well here we go , here is an image
right is black and left is white and then >>>>>
these are BLACK vultures and in amongst them is a ......White Zombie !
yes sir it exists and to be sure WOW is the word !
got to see it pretty close and it does not appear to be an actual albino
some other sort of tom foolery in the pigmentation world , but again to be sure
WOW !
the things I dont get photos of and wish I did would really surprise ya , just saying .....
no KABOOM please , federally protected and quite possibly the only one in Texas .....
again not kidding around is my native american name

Never seen one of those that color, interesting.

Was banking one day a few years ago and the pests of the earth were in a parking lot , aka grackles , I was about to depart when a mottled black and white like a dairy cow one showed up with the herd . It was terribly shy though and the images I captured made it look like a mockingbird….lol

That's just a turkey still wearing his disguise from Thanksgiving to escape the knife!
