    Yeah, those are good photos. This folks, for those of you that don't know this, is what most pugets in their range look like. In some areas, including the US/Canada border they look like a T. s. fitchi or similar to a T.s. concinnus.(red phase puget) The blue ones are actually a very locality-specific color variation and have a very limited range which is only a tiny percentage of their range. Go to Olympia and they're blue.(just around the southern tip of the sound) Travel only just a little ways toward Seattle, and they are no longer blue. Northern WA and Canada - red phase.

    These babies will likely develop a sort of light yellow/green "wash" color to the white areas as they get older. Or not. They could just stay off-white.

    actually a lot of them will probably turn blue.

    They're actually already blue, some green, but none tan which is what they look like in the pictures.
