Head of a white peacock. As you can see, his eyes are dark, not light like an albino's would be.

Guys, for all of those wondering what to call this color, he's 'leucistic'. This is a color variation in which the bird has to do with improper melanin placement. Unlike albino, these animals still have some color. (whether it be skin, eye, or even miner feather color in some places) That's why the eye still is dark.
