Description

Luke has a partially leucistic plumage, with a white spot on the top of his head and many white or light gray splotches across the shoulders and back. He is likely a chestnut-backed chickadee based on shape, but lives in a flock with both black-capped and chestnut-backed chickadees, so it is difficult to discern which he is.
