Definition
A dark color that appears to be a blend of deep blue and black, like the color of a raven's wing.
Etymology
Compound of blue (Old English blew, from Old French bleu) plus black (Old English blæc). The combination describes a specific shade achieved by mixing these colors.
Kelly Says
Blueblack feathers on crows and ravens aren't actually blue at all—they're structural colors created by how light bounces off microscopic feather structures, so the 'blue' appears and disappears depending on the angle!
