Excessive 'catchlight' from flash. Yellow eye vs 'red eye'

-auto exposure called for flash, which I considered worthless

at distance of almost 20', but the heavy overcast lighting late

in the day got some light on subject . The eyes of this species

is evidently highly reflective. With the dark branch and 'evil eye',

I decided not to correct for 'red eye, ---leaving the bird with

and evil and foreboding look. Whata ya think??
