Some go for shades of monochrome.  From a weather site I follow "I saw a really grey cockatoo today at the domain / botanic gardens. The whole bird was just really grey from the soot/smoke, really sad."

Also on the matter of grey, before we left Mallacoota this morning a Grey Goshawk, carrying prey, flashed out of a tree pursued by two shrieking Magpies.  The Goshawk tore into some other foliage, maintaining full speed.  The pursuers were not capable of such maneuvers!
