PINK Dolphin on PINK Saturday!

Yes it is a PINK Dolphin very hard to believe!  I received an email with these photos and following story.

Think pink .... you're not seeing the world through rose-coloured glasses: This albino dolphin is pink.

Unique ... the bottlenose - first spotted in Lake Calcasieu , an inland saltwater estuary in Louisiana , by boat captain Erik Rue, 42, in 2007 - has surfaced again.



Rare sight ... "Pinky" is believed to be the only pink dolphin in the world, and has "reddish" eyes. It is usually spotted with its dark grey mother.


Healthy glow ... "The dolphin appears to be healthy and normal other than its coloration, which is quite beautiful and stunningly pink," said Mr Rue, who estimates he has spotted Pinky more than 40 times.



I would really love to see this PINK Dolphin! 

Bev over at How Sweet the Sound has the list of all the participants in todays PINK Saturday.
Happy Mothers Day to everyone!

Warm wishes,
