O.C.R.
Having shot rather more than a few teal during many shooting seasons, I am well aware what a cock(male) teal looks like. Unfortunately, that wonderful bird, has many colours to chose from, how is a non artistic eye to tell which colour to choose ? In passing, teal are also splendid to eat.
I have trapped many hundreds, thousands probably, of moles during a long agricultural career in various parts of the UK, British moles seem to me more black with a wee tint of grey. Does that accurately describe taupe?
By the way, I have never heard of a mole called a "taupe". Maybe they are called "taupe" in parts of Britain, but not in the parts of Britain that I frequent.
Bison described as a colour I actually understand as brown, but why not just call it brown?
