I got a small walnut board the other day (I'm very excited it will be my
first time using walnut) and noticed a few birdseye figures on it.
Certainly not enough to call this "birdseye walnut" but I was surprised to
see the figures on it at all. I'd never heard of walnut having any before.
Does walnut ever get enough to really be considered "birdseye walnut"? Has
anyone here used it before? Any pictures?

I have some quilted walnut, like your birdseye, not to much. I think
quilting and birdseye are very close and only differ because the way the
log got cut. I don't know this for sure.
