Thanks Fred! Looks like there will be a Details on... describing a certain
feathered deinonychosaur in the near future. Perfectly preserved remiges,
retrices, plumage, elongate deinonychosaur-style chevrons and
prezygopophyses...... Can't....wait....for....paper. >>
Actually, it looks strikingly like the dinobirds I predicted in my article in
Omni, June 1994. Compare with animals #3-5 in Luis Rey's painting for that
piece. Also might want to compare the (geologically much, much earlier)
Saltopus type specimen with this one. No feather impressions on Saltopus,
however.
