I was trying to find a sheltie -- they are even cuter, and often have odd eyes -- but the only one I could find was spoiled by an ugly watermark.

I only found out the other day that eye colour is caused by the amount of melanin in the stroma of the iris - more melanin gives brown eyes, less gives green (mine are green) and blue eyes means there is little or no melanin 🙂

A blue merle sheltie, very similar in appearance to my elder sister's dog Belle.
 
Just a medical correction. David Bowie didn’t have different coloured eyes. An eye injury when he was a teenager left him with a permanently dilated pupil, which can give the impression of different coloured irises, but they weren’t different colours. Sorry to spoil the fun.
 
Good job macaques can’t recognise themselves in mirrors. These are, of course, just the next big step on to cloning humans. Only the Chinese have the morals different enough to try this. Recreate your little boy or girl who has just died. The stuff of nightmares.:confused:

Cute they are not. They look terrified.
 
What, no quolls this week? :D
