Cool little albino loggerhead turtle

The baby albino turtle, named Alba lives at Marineland in Antibes in the south of France.  At just two months old she is receiving swim lessons from her sister.  Albinism is caused by a rare combination of genes which prevent pigmentation forming in the skin and eyes. 17-year-old student Cassandra Martin took these wonderful photos.
