I share this as I wait for the spring thaw to fill my bird feeder.

Sorry! -The link goes to The Brutal Reality of Neanderthal Violence, poor dinosaurs don't get a look in!

That actually sounds way more interesting to me than birds.

Sorry, I wanted to post the Neanderthal link yesterday.

Chickens are just a few DNA manipulations away from becoming their ancestral T-Rexes… ;-)

Hmm, that was interesting. There are still a lot of gaps in the fossil record, obviously, but the current hypothesis of late Jurassic feathered dinosaurs seems 'set in stone' (LOL!)

Charming video. Especially like the blue-gridded animations flying around.

Ambivalent around the discovery of fossil deposits whilst constructing a motorway.

Recommend: Manchester Museum – Fossil gallery (this is UK not NH)

Despite all the evidence and learned opinion I still firmly reject hairy and feathered dinosaurs. They gotta be gray green tail draggers or I'm not interested. Y'all do know the world is flat doncha?

Why not both, Shagnasty? I have 'olde schoole' grey/green ones for pulp cowboys and others to encounter, and garish thunder lizard-birds for modern time travelers to flee…

As long as they can Eat Hitler, I'm okay with any version.
