Which background colour is that?

There is a dark grey which is outside the device surface and cannot be
altered.

The device surface is covered by a canvas, colour set by the argument
`canvas' to windows().  Finally, a plot has a background colour set by
par(bg=), which is by default transparent.

by windows(), the same way you opened the first one (possibly unseen by
you).
