Well, to be clear, there are a few of them -- six or seven.  I went to
see them over the weekend.  One little guy sort of smiles at you
across the eons.  It's wierd.

Several of the eggs on display are in clusters of three.  Not sure if
they were laid that way or just dug up that way.

The display is right below the life restoration of the juveline
Barosaurus on the fourth floor.
