Leucistic crow || Bhigwan grasslands, Pune district || Dec 2022<br />
Leucism is a complete lack of melanin in all or part of the plumage, but not necessarily the soft tissues. Leusistic birds can have one or multiple white feathers, as is the case with this crow, or be completely white but with regularly coloured eyes. Their feet and bills may or may not appear pink like that of an albino bird&rsquo;s.<br />
