White Squirrel (leucistic)

Fredericksburg, Virginia

Spotted this guy as I was driving; pulled over and managed to get three photos.
This is the best of the three shots. Obviously, not an albino, since the eyes are black.

Nikon D800 ,AF-S VR Nikkor 70-200mm f2.8G with TC-20 E II
1/400s f/5.6 at 400.0mm iso560 full exif

other sizes: small medium large auto

Oh, very cool! I'd love to see one, and like I said I was told one was living on Capitol Hill but haven't managed to find it yet.

Nice find Don ! We have two visiting our feeders nowadays: one is very short tailed and the other is regular....I wonder what went wrong with the short tailed one...
