"Hey, Herman, look over there. The humans are leaving bones and skeletons in their yard."
"I checked them out already, Griff. They're plastic. Empty calories and they taste awful."
"A trick, not a treat, eh? What say we leave them a little something in return..."

“Dance, when you're broken open. Dance, if you've torn the bandage off. Dance in the middle of the fighting. Dance in your blood. Dance when you're perfectly free.” ...Rumi

"I try to keep my display of schadenfreude tamped down, but yesterday's Federal Trade Court ruling was just too sweet not to merit a chuckle. At least.
Happy Thursday-birdsday!"

"You know, Duncan said if we sit together like this, we look just like a big caterpillar."

Almost forgot to post for #ThursdayBIRDSday

We just discussed the new Australian theropods paper (earliest occurence of a megaraptoran!), the Romanian titanosaur publication, and the review paper on dinosaur feathers. Now it's time to take a look at some (avian) theropod photos from the community
