Leucism is a partial loss of pigmentation, which can make the animal have white or patchily colored skin, hair, feathers and so on, but the pigment cells in the eyes are not affected by the condition. Leucisim is often mistaken for albinism, but they are two very different conditions.

Excellent set Tony. I see you have located my favourite GBH from Vancouver Island. Good to see he/she is doing well despite the poor camouflage!! Where did you find him this time? Still in the harbour or has he moved up the coast to Parksville?

Thanks, Geoff. Like most GBH's, he tends to stay in the same location for most of the year. Don't know if he/she has found a mate yet.
