Topic: Yellow newt
In our garden pond (in Wokingham, Berkshire) we have a large number of common newts and possibly some great crested (or very knobbly common newts). We also have at least one yellow newt, resident for the past couple of years. It looks more goldfish-coloured than the somewhat washed-out photo suggests so I'm not convinced it's simply an albino. Size and shape suggest a common newt - is it likely to be a mutation?

Thanks Caleb & Chris. It has normal coloured eyes so it must be leucistic. David |
