What makes this San Jose bald eagle so rare and special?

https://www.mercurynews.com/2019/02/08/what-makes-this-san-jose-bald-eagle-so-rare-and-special/


Birds with leucism have shorter life spans, partly because the lack of melanin -- coloring -- weakens the feathers, which can make flying more difficult.
