black around the eye.what is this?????

I've noticed some black around the eye where the blue markings are on the pics. What is this its not a black dot but its more of black smuged around the corner of the eye. I've seen this before in pictures of hatchling (snows,amels,butters, etc...)I never noticed it on mine up until recently.

I don't know the technical term for it (wish I did), but it's common to see in amels. In other words, it's nothing special and nothing to be concerned about.
