Leucistic Hawk

Curious if anyone has seen one around. Second one I’ve seen in three months in my yard in southern Ulster. Definitely cool to see.

Hard to tell from the pic, but I don't think I've seen one either.
I have a few birdfeeders on one side of the house, and occasionally some raptor about the size of a pigeon swoops in and takes one of the birds at the feeder.  I haven't seen that part happen, but I've seen the predator flying off with the victim a couple times.
It's pretty neat watching something else hunt like that.
