Finch was seen 02/07/2016 feeding on the ground below feeders, among other house finches. This was the first time I’ve seen anything like this at my feeders.

It’s time to renew for the 2026–27 FeederWatch season. Renew today! If you have already renewed, thank you!

Hi Vanessa, this is called leucism. It is the partial loss of pigments in an animal, which results in abnormal light or white coloring.
