Stone The Crows, Almost One Of A Kind, A Rare White Bird Appears Out Of Nowhere!

An extremely rare white crow was recently seen in Takasaki, Gunma, eastern Japan by a very lucky local man.

Experts estimate that the chance of seeing such a crow is probably around one in tens of thousands. Mokoi Okada, 88, first saw the crow searching for food alongside a flock of black crows in a field near his house on May 21. Since then, his luck continued as he saw the rare bird almost every evening.

“At first I didn’t think it was a crow, and thought it might be a pigeon. I was surprised,” he said.

Professor Shoei Sugita of Tohto University, who is an expert on crows, told the Mainichi Shimbun, “Since the head is brown, it is not a bird that has lost melanin pigment synthesis, but perhaps an animal that turned white due to weak synthesis. I receive information on white crows once every few years.”
