TIL crows, starlings and similar birds only *look* black to us — they’re actually very colorful in ways human eyes are unable to perceive. 🤯
Remember that next time people can’t see your “colors”.
Some colors just require different eyes.

@leaverou if you enjoyed that discovery, I recommend reading Ed Yong's An Immense World
@leaverou Yup. And we explain to ourselves that the females are usually drab brown because we are a ridiculous species of ape who have conditioned ourselves to view female as inferior, but to birds, that drab brown contains multitudes of colors that just confuse our eyes. If anything they are more brilliant.
@leaverou The same applies to people. Don't deny your richness just because you're not understood for the time being.
