Is it normal for a white female zebra finch to have faint stripes across its tail, as all pictures ive seen of white ones are completely white?

(the parents are normal male + fawn female)

One of the parents may have some pied-ness as a recessive gene. Perhaps it showed up as a strippy tail in that offspring...?
