A picture of a stylized #Microraptor - a dromaeosaur from China, characterized by its four winged limbs as well as likely iridescent feathers. A #paleoart commission.

I was depicting this over a decade ago in my #paleoart! First image is #Microraptor (before the publication suggesting its feather colors came out) Second is of the larger #Changyuraptor. https://www.nature.com/articles/s41467-022-35039-1

Just saw the #nature paper about Microraptors feet suggesting it hunted like a hawk. I was painting this in my #paleoart YEARS ago! #Microraptor (before feather pigment paper came out) my #Microraptor and #Changyuraptor pictured below. #scicomm #watercolor https://www.nature.com/articles/s41467-022-35039-1

A #Microraptor investigates some strange colourful plants - the first #flowers she’s ever seen.
This started out as an idea to do a piece on #angiosperm evolution, but that turned out to be a way deeper and more contentious issur than I thought. Molecular evidence says they go way back to the Devonian! So these #lingyuananthus flowers are only new to this Microraptor because they were still fairly rare, not because they were truly new.

Incredible soft-tissue detail visible under UV light on the fossil foot of a "raptor" (dromaeosaurid) dinosaur. Bottom right is my quick illustration.

Because I always love seeing the answers to simple questions like these, and because there's a new influx of users; what's your favorite of the #dinosaurs ?
Mine's easily #Microraptor due to my interest in modern birds, and thus an interest in the evolution of their relatives and especially of flight; you can see it's my favorite from my username, even.
