B&W Jungles

Hi
Does anyone have any pics of black and white jungles.
Are they just really pale yellow or stark white?
Cheers
Ad.

There is a book on reptiles that has a picture of a black and white jungle.
I think it is axanthic(spelling). It looks black and light silver not stark white.

If nobody posts any pics I will get the book from uni and post pics soon.

Thanks Zoster, silly me, I have that book on the shelf There is another pic a couple of pages earlier too. I wouldn't put too much on the colouration in that pic it doesn't look like a mature animal to me. JMO, I wish I could remember where I saw the pic that made me fall in love with B&W's. Well come to think of it it may have been lust not love but either way a true B&W is a thrill to see

Black and white jungles are found in a few specific areas on the Atherton Tablelands and further north.The true stunning black and whites should not be confused with open forest jungles which can look simialr but are definitely not the same.

A friend of mine sent me this pic ages ago and it's almost as nice as a stunning black and gold!!!!

Saw some neonates that were light grey and black, NOT in adult plumage yet. One in particular was stunning with an amazing head pattern. On my list of must have.
