Thanks google mail for storing thousands of emails from naturens... ====== At Doctor's Brook, Antigonish County, today (May 5), I had a pinkish Purple Finch at my feeders. Has anyone ever seen this before? Is it a form of partial albinism? Or is it an unusual plumage variation? You can see some photos of the bird at http://picasaweb.google.com/j.f.kearney/StrangePurpleFinch <http://picasaweb.google.com/j.f.kearney/StrangePurpleFinch> . Click on the thumbnails to see a larger photo. I'm photographically challenged so I apologize in advance for the poor quality images.
