I have seen some weird color faze birds in the blues also. A friend of mine called in a white hen over there a couple years ago.
If it flies it dies.

I have a semi albino bird running on my place just outside of the blues.  It is mostly white but has alot of gray on its wings.  It was a jake last year but I might give a few more years before I go after him.
Ill try to get a pic.
Yeah but at least it will eat good...

Somewhere in the literature I believe they refer to that coloration in Rio's as a "Ghost " phase.  Can't remember where I read it though.  Fairly common in traditional Rio states....i.e. Texas, Kansas, Oklahoma.
