American Robin (leucistic)

Turdus migratorius

Notes:

The quintessential early bird, American Robins are common sights on lawns across North America, where you often see them tugging earthworms out of the ground. Robins are popular birds for their warm orange breast, cheery song, and early appearance at the end of winter. Though they’re familiar town and city birds, American Robins are at home in wilder areas, too, including mountain forests and Alaskan wilderness. [Cornell]

Thanks Ashley. Robins seem to be leucistic more than any other bird. This is the fifth one I've seen.

Very cool! I'm still hopeful one day to find either a banded bird or a weird colored one like this :)
