We have had one of these birds (leucistic goldfinch)visiting our backyard feeder.

August 1, 2020 Leucistic American Goldfinch visiting our backyard seed feeders today in Santa Rosa, Sonoma County, CA. Beautiful bird! No yellow, the white is bright white, made more stunning by the contrast of black wing feathers.
We had a pale pure canary yellow/white one at our feeder today (12/5/2020) in Starlite, Bishop, California.
We have had a leucistic Goldfinch at are feeders for the last 2 days. White with tan shoulders. Thank you for helping identify this bird. Fletcher, ohio.
