Observation details

Bev Agler and I saw what was perhaps a leucistic yellow warbler, but species is unknown. Perhaps aberrantly-plumaged is a better description given the attributes of the bird? The bird was bright, light yellow, with white outer wings and tail. There were a few black streaks on the lower back and possibly upper wing but very difficult to determine. My pictures are quite poor, as the white aspects of the bird were blown out; over-exposed. One flight shot shows some of the features even though the bird is out of focus.
