Fox eyes - nice double

Just getting my bearings tonight and pointed to Achernar. I noticed a star just to the east in my finder and had a look through the ep. What a nice double. Two orange stars of similar magnitude that looked like it could have been a pair of fox eyes in a spotlight. I looked it up in the atlas and think it may be p. eridani. Well worth a look.
