Eye reflection colour

[Lennard 10]

L.S.,

 

I get to see more and more eyes at night...but I have a hard time to tell to who the eyes belong too far away...

 

Hare is kind of bright yellow.

Rabbit is more orange/red.

 

Is this right?

 

What colour do fox eyes reflect?

And roe?

 

 

cheers,

L

[Guest dotty]

fox eyes are white and like light bulbs

roe are dimmer and slightly greenish

[Guest world.hunters]

Foxes sometimes look slightly orange,

I find rabbit and hare are mainly red, fox orange, roe orange or white with a green tint.

 

My dogs wall eye is white, his brown eye is red.

I reckon that rabbits: ruby red

hares: orangy yellow

fox: yellowy

munty: brilliant silver white, like burning magnesium! Sheep's eyes are like that too!

Rabbit= Red

Hare=pale yellow

Charlie = white yellow (but its the blinking that gives them away on the beam)

Roe = green

I remember from england that rabbits eyes are red. I wonder why that it? Hares, I honestly can't remember off hand. Seen enough lately but it doesn't register. But foxes, cats, badgers, Dogs, cows and sheep are All, in my experience, what could be described as one or another 'shade' of 'white' to 'green'. I've lamped up the lot of them out there. Oh, and one client. His eyes were sort of squinty!

 

Ipso facto; I identify the species or I don't take that shot. I simply Will Not fire at 'eyes'.

[Guest merlin]

rabbits=red,hares=white at distance,red close up.fox=gold.roe=blue/green

My dogs wall eye is white, his brown eye is red.

 

Paid i dread to think what you've been doing to that poor dog to make its brown eye red...lol.

[Guest Ditch_Shitter]

hares=white at distance, red close up.

 

 

Cheers for that, Merlin! That must be why I didn't want to commit myself on Hares! I was thinking; " I seem to remember I've seen them red too. But that bugger down on the ditch bank was definately a Hare ~ and didn't the eyes show 'white'? "

 

That explains it then! Sorted! I love learning bits like this! Thanks!

The eye colours seem to change all the time to me. If you see one little eye it's a rabbit, though some times it can be a hare. If you see two saucer like eyes then generally its a fox. Then a big single eye or a big face saying, duh, then its a deer! The light illuminates them enough to tell before you run them. If you can't see what they are before you run them... get some glasses and good luck!

also,to complicate things,depends on the filter you are using
