newbie question: red handle in render

dan_68a22cc03e

I am a newbie and have looked for a solution, but not sure if I'm calling things by the right names.

I loaded a giraffe and did a few pose adjustments then did a simple render and it shows a red area in front of the face and can't figure out how to get rid of it, so it doesn't render.

here is what it shows (attached).

 

Thanks,

Daniel

Which figure is it?

It looks to me as an eye  target, and if you click on it in the viewport it should hightlight in the scene tab, and then you can click the 'Eye' icon to the left, which will make the object not visible.

You can also use the Parameters pane, under Display, to turn off Visible in Render - then it will not rnder but it will be visible in the scene while posing.

Is that an eye controller? Is there a way to get that for characters that I'm not aware of? I know how to do it with nulls and point at, yada yada, it'd just be nice to have one premade that I can apply.
