Leucistic Magpie

I had heard rumours of an 'albino' magpie residing close to where i live in Port Macquarie. Was pleased to finally see the bird carolling away on a power line. It was almost completely white. Didn't have my camera on me but managed a few poor quality iPhone shots.

Hi Peter, No it was near Westport High School in Port Macquarie. Interesting that there has been a similar bird in Dunbogan. I often go birding down that way so i'll keep an eye out for it. I saw a post on eremaea last week of a red magpie, very strange.
