Nearly everyone is familiar with the bright red of a male Northern Cardinal. In Kentucky there is a bizarre yellow Northern Cardinal!
“According to bird plumage expert Geoff Hill (Auburn University): This cardinal is yellow because of a rare genetic mutation.” – Kentucky Ornithological Society
This was extemely interesting! I shared it with everyone at work today. 🙂 Thanks for posting about it.
Saw one of these in my backyard yesterday (12/27/16) in Eastern Tennessee. Couldn’t get a photo, but it was beautiful.
Awesome! They are really rare.
