Charles, LA.

It appears to be an uncanny freak of nature, an albino dolphin, with reddish eyes and glossy pink skin. It is small in comparison to the others it is traveling with and appears to be a youngster traveling with mama.
After spotting the beautiful mammal cruising with a pod of four other dolphins, Rue and his guests Randy and Peyton Smith and Greg and Sam Elias of Monroe, LA idled nearby while watching and photographing the unusual sight for more than an hour.




Maybe news travels slow to the UK from here, LOL!
Yeah very slow Dantheman lol!
Still what a beautiful sight be it that the young dolphin would be fully grown now but still retains it's unusuallity.
