Ravens are highly intelligent creatures who can live up to 21 years. Though they are typically known for their jet black appearance, there is a rare species of ravens that is completely white. Now, a wildlife photographer has managed to capture these rare white ravens in a series of images that are going viral.

Mike Yip is a wildlife photographer from British Columbia, Canada who has followed a family of white ravens for years. He first shared his bird photos back in 2004, and he has since become very popular in the world of wildlife photography.

“As a result I soon established the reputation of the local ‘birdman’ and people started contacting me about strange bird sightings,” Mike said.

His reputation soon proceeded him, and he received a call about a sighting.

“At first I thought they were chickens, but when I focussed my camera, I saw that they were WHITE RAVENS,” Mike explained. “I was so excited that I almost forgot to take some photos.”

He received another call one year later, this time from a friend. Since then, Mike has captured countless images of the ravens, who suffer from a rare genetic disorder called leucism.

It’s always amazing to see rare creatures in the world! These photos serve as a reminder that there are so many wondrous creatures that God has created. Just when we think that we’ve seen them all, we see photos like this and are reminded that there are more creatures out there than we can even imagine.
