Luecistic Roseate Spoonbill?????


Well, the roseate spoonbill I got pics of a couple of weeks ago was back at my pond this weekend. I was able to get some better in flight pics this time as well. Someone on another forum commented about how this bird looked to be luecistic. When I first got pics of this bird I did notice that it was a lot more white than other spoonbills I had seen. I thought this was just due to its diet. But then I noticed something else that was just a little different. This bird has black eyes opposed to the typical red eyes that you see which is a characteristic in luecisitic animals. Maybe someone with more knowledge can ad some insight. As always CC welcomed and appreciated. Thanks for looking!! Here is the link to the first thread with more pictures of the same bird.
