In reply to Jochen.

Hi, I think what you’re seeing there is just a reflection on the glossy surface of the bird’s pupil, not its iris color. Very observant though! Thanks for asking – Hugh

I am confused by the pale blue eye of the chickadee.

Is that normal?

I hope this is the largest bird count ever. Love your pics, especially the young bird watcher. It’s good to get them started early!
