A white deer, appearing to be an albino white-tailed buck, recently ventured in the Western Albemarle yard of Susan Heald, who snapped this image on the morning of November 5. (Hunting season begins on Saturday, November 17.)
After we put this photo online, some helpful commenters noted that it may not be a true albino, but instead a leucistic deer, which is one missing all pigments (not just melanin).\
