Fluffed Up Robin Yellow-Red Breast

Before the introduction of the fruit, English didn't have a word for the colour orange. The English were too lazy to change the name of the yellow-red deer, yellow-red fox, robin yellow-red breast and those with yellow-red hair as we'd already dropped off the yellow.
