Hi bird lovers

I'm sure we all know some pretty good examples of convergence, but take a
look at these Nashville Warblers. The resemblance to Silvereyes is quite
striking. I'm sure that there must be a good paper waiting to be written on
the advantages of the white eye ring, it seems to be one of those themes
which continually crops up in birds.

I hope this link works, as I've had trouble with them on Birding-Aus of
late. If it doesn't work first go, try copying and pasting the entire
address into your browser.

Happy birding.
