"White-eyed" Towhees at Beaufort, NC



This morning, while at the Rachel Carson Sanctuary, just south of Beaufort,
NC, I looked closely at all towhees I encountered.  Of the 14  I saw, 10
were "white-eyeds", i.e. with very pale whitish to slightly yellowish eyes.
The other four had eye colors that varied from orangish to nearly red.

I'll have to do this in the same area next winter.
