    that's cool. There's another (longer) article here Rare albino kookaburras discovered in Qld - ABC News (Australian Broadcasting Corporation). In the accompanying photo you can see a touch of blue on the wing.

    WOW! How interesting! Thanks for sharing!

    The founder of the Wildlife Shelter's name is a bit unfortunate though.

    He always has to hold things for a photo, I bet both of those birds have no tail left after being chased around the enclosure.
