Two Common Moorhens (Gallinula chloropus) showing typical colouration in the bird on the left and white (leucistic) plumage in the bird on the right, Dalton-in-Furness, Cumbria, England
The plumage of the bird on the right looks pure white but on close inspection the head is very slightly pink. The pigmentation of the eyes further distinguish it from an albino.
