Hesitant about posting this shot, but the bird is pretty striking.

Wwow- amazing rare to see so much white. I always wonder how these birds survive-if they are accepted by their own species.

He seems to hang out by himself...I can't imagine him making it a whole year, he really stands out until the snow flies.
