I’ve actually photographed a wild all-white RTH at one point.

Very cool! I have seen one solid white bird in the wild, but I was not able to photograph it.

I've actually never heard of a "leucistic" bird before. This is an interesting photo to see
Fantastic shot!

It is sort of like a partial albino bird. They lack some pigment, but not usually all. Sometimes it is patchy, sometimes it affect all their feathers the same amount. It is a very interesting thing to see.

I can definitely see that, oddities such as these are interesting to document.
