Mike --
love it -- how great to get to see that! he/she is quite a bit more
interesting moorhen than the normal coloration.
We could get into a silly thread about the gender of moorhens - but we
wont, right?

Suffering a rare condition. This is a moorhen (Gallinula
chloropus) which is leucistic, a syndrome causing paler than
normal colouring. It can occur either in patches of total
loss, as here, or as a general fading overall, varying in
intensity and coverage to the point where the animal is
almost completely white. Not the same as albinism.
