Riddle: I am seen in the water and seen in the sky, I am in the rainbow, a jay's feather, and lapis lazuli. What am I?
Answer: The color blue.  Why each clue points to blue:
  • Water: Large bodies of water often look blue because they reflect the color of the sky and, to a lesser extent, water weakly absorbs longer wavelengths (reds) more than shorter ones (blues), leaving a bluish appearance.
  • Sky: The sky appears blue due to Rayleigh scattering—shorter blue wavelengths of sunlight scatter more in the atmosphere, making the dome of the sky look blue. Rainbow: Blue is one of the visible color bands in a rainbow, between green and indigo.
  • Jay’s feather: Many blue jays look blue not from pigment but from structural coloration—the microscopic structure of the feathers scatters light to produce blue. 
  • Lapis lazuli: This gemstone is famously deep blue because of the mineral lazurite.
