This bird was photographed at Bird Island in 10 August 2011 and was only present for the one day. However, I believe it had also been seen on St Croix Island by Lorienne Pichgrieu and Lloyd Edwards prior to our sighting at Bird Island. I assumed that this was a leucistic individual as it also does not have pink eyes but is certainly the palest African Penguin I have seen. |
