No “red” on this red-tailed hawk. An uncommon sighting, this is a leucistic (not albino) red-tailed hawk. Leucism is similar to albinism, however, albinos lack the ability to create melanin, one specific type of pigment. Leucistic animals usually have normal eye color, unlike albinos, which generally have red eyes. 🪶🕊Visit our Center Thursday through Saturday to see this unique, beautiful hawk in person.
