    Default White-tailed Chickadee



    Recently, I saw this chickadee with a white tail in our backyard. Am I correct that this means it's partially leucistic? Thought it was interesting and wanted to share.

    I would agree Christopher- partially leucistic would be a good descriptor. Nice.

    Interesting find, Christopher, I had a chickadee at my feeder that looked quite similar.

    Thanks for confirming my guess, John. This was my first time ever seeing something like this before.
