Aldergrove resident Lizzy Grimes was urged by her landlord, Nanda Kumar, to her share a rare avian discovery she made on Tuesday morning in her backyard 香蕉视频直播� a white crow.

香蕉视频直播淚香蕉视频直播檝e never seen one before, I was in my glory,香蕉视频直播� Grimes said.

With distinct white feathers and pink feet, bill, and eyes, albino crows are not common as parents with the same recessive gene are needed to produce them.

Albinism is a genetic mutation that prevents the production of melanin in the body, which results in a complete lack of colour.

The bright white bird is rarely seen, with only a handful of accounts in B.C. throughout the past decade.

Kumar said it香蕉视频直播檚 a one in 10,000 occurrence.

White crows don香蕉视频直播檛 usually survive the first year as they are too predator prone.

Kumar feared that predators may make an easy meal out of the crow and made some phone calls to see what could be done.

香蕉视频直播淎s the baby crow needed to be rescued and saved, so I put it in a box and handed it over to the Wildlife Recuse Association in Burnaby,香蕉视频直播� Kumar explained.

He said the association seemed positive about the crow香蕉视频直播檚 future.

Kumar added that Grimes had claimed to have seen a second one on Tuesday, but that it had flown off and could still be nesting somewhere around Aldergrove.
