Children and Mothers
" Children and Mothers never truly part - Bound in the beating of each other's heart." - Charlotte Gray
Here are a couple of photos of Albino whitetail deer Baby Blue Eyes as she walks up and greets her mother Suzy on the deer trail. You can see the love and affection in her eyes that she has for her mother.

Amazing sighting of 2 leopard cubs on the Western shores, Isimangaliso this afternoon- amazingly one appears to be a rare 'Strawberry' leopard. This unusual colouration is thought to be a result a genetic mutation called erythrism that causes an absence of a normal dark pigment or excessive production of red pigment. This has only been recorded a handful of times in leopards so could be a pretty special find for Isimangaliso.

Unfortunatly I didn't found any scientific study on this mutation, but from post and comments it seems it has minimal impact on live quality.

Rare Yellow King Penguin Photographed for the First Time.
In December 2019, photographer Yves Adams embarked on a two-month photography expedition in South Georgia, where he spotted a strange looking penguin.
Of the many genetic quirks that can cause abnormal colors, the most well-known is albinism, the inability to synthesize any melanin. Albino birds usually have an all-white appearance, with pink eyes, beak, skin, and feet. But Allison Schultz, curator of ornithology at the Natural History Museum of Los Angeles, doesn't think the penguin spotted by Adams is albino.
Usually, a bird’s yellow, orange, and red plumage is produced by carotenoids, explains Schultz. But penguins have their own unique pigment called spheniscin, so they could lack all melanin and still retain their sunny hues. Schultz doesn't think that's what going on here, though. She points to color in the bird's eyes and light rufous tones on some feathers as evidence of melanin. Instead, she thinks the bird has leucism. “Albino means that all melanin production is gone, whereas leucism means that there is still some melanin production,” she says.

Pygmy Killer Whale This one is interesting. It is not related to the Killer Whale and is not a whale but a dolphin. The only thing that is accurate about its name is that it is not very large. Perhaps it should be called just the "Pygmy". However, it is very similar to another dolphin called the Melon-headed whale (we will learn about that one soon).
Not much is known about this 'whale' (I'm not sure if I should call it a whale). It is not typically aggressive in the wild, although there have been reports of aggressive behavior in captivity. Maybe is trying to tell us something.

Meet the Kākāpō, an Endangered Flightless Parrot That Smells Good, and Looks Like a Muppet
Leave it to Australia and New Zealand for having the most fabulous, unusual, and rare species anywhere. Today we’re looking (in wonder) at the Kākāpō, a large flightless parrot, which is also called the Owl Parrot. It is large and heavy, has brilliant green feathers, blue feet, and supposedly smells nice as well. What!? The unique characteristics continue, as this is not only the heaviest parrot…
