Lore (anatomy)

loreal) is the region between the eyes and nostrils of birds, reptiles, and amphibians.

In ornithology, the lore is the region between the eye and bill on the side of a bird's head.

[1] This region is sometimes featherless, and the skin may be tinted, as in many species of the cormorant family.

[2] This area, which is directly in front of the eye, features a "loral stripe" in many bird species including the red-capped plover.

These are analogous to the lore on birds which corresponds to the region between the eye and the beak.
