Hi Judy,
Thanks ! I think the eye may be black, not pink, in which case it wouldn't
be true albino.
I really can't detect definite colour at all, possibly very light tints of
brown ? It was cloudy, even raining all the time. I think we see a bit of
shade under the wings.
In one photo I think background could look to be a dark line along the tail.
Best,
Rick.
