Andy,
Re. yellow iris and night feeding. I am not
sure at this stage that it does but a number of owls, frogmouths and the two
stone-curlews all have yellow irises and are nocturnal. The
Tyto owls have dark irises but they rely mostly on their hearing
for locating prey. Don't cats usually have yellow irises?
