FergusN··on Reindeer can see UV light
No stupid questions. This is not something i have noticed before. I don't think I am able to discern the difference to be honest. The sun during the day just looks like white, yellowish light to me.

Fun fact - Some humans can see UV light. People that have had their lenses removed, normally due to having cateracts surgically removed. I know this because i had my lenses removed at 3 months old and have worn contact lenses my enitre life. The first time i became aware i could see UV light was in a bowling alley with black lights, where one of my contact lenses had uv filtering and the other did not. A very disorienting experience. This is my very low-key superpower.
