Exactly right.  I think the term 'yellow dun' is
misleading.  when one thinks of 'dun' one thinks
'black midstripe, black mane and tail'.  Such is not
the case with a 'yellow dun'.  I believe the reason
they still call it dun is because, if you looked VERY
carefully, you might see some VERY SLIGHTLY darker
yellow color on the eel stripe and in the center of
the mane and tail.  However, it would probably be
hardly noticeable at all.  To avoid confusion maybe
this color should be called 'yellow Fjord' or
'Isabella', since that term is already in use to
describe the color.  At our house we just say "Faksi
colored", since she is the only one that color that we
know of.  I keep threatening to make the trip to
Norway just once - just to see Faksi for myself.  She
and Belinda are the only ones of Line's foals I have
not seen 'in person'.
