Are the "eyes" (prominent at http://www.flickr.com/photos/wsos/1522280435/) not present in the peloric variant?

Beautiful picture... but those things look vaguely mean. I would expect one of them to spit at me or quiver manically like in that book 'The Ruins'. But I digress. Cool picture!
I do not see the bearded man at all - to me, they look like birds (maybe hummingbirds) feeding on the flowers. Maybe birds or insects have the same kind of pareidolia, and the plant takes advantage of that?
