LarsFosdal, 3 months ago @globalmuseum It makes me wonder how we humans look to birds... Which probably is rather drab?

lffontenelle, 3 months ago @LarsFosdal @globalmuseum IIRC most mammals have only two types of cones (color vision cells). I saw once how a tiger would blend pretty well in the greenery from the perspective of it's prey, and it's a close analogy to the analogy by the OP
