Leucistic Hummingbird
In September 2019, a homeowner on the southwest side of Madison reported seeing a leucistic hummingbird at their feeders and flowers. Leucism is a partial loss of pigment that does not include the eyes (thus distinguishing this from true albinism). The following photos are courtesy of Barbara Houlihan.
