There are plenty of transitionals, a number of species to species transitionals. Scientists have observed speciation. And ERV's are essentially genetic fossils that have clinched the case for common descent. Creationists are going to be very disappointed in the next one hundred years. :) They have been saying so for the past one hundred years. :-)
Where are today's transitionals? The environment is rich with opportunity for transitional species, but they can't be found. By definition, such transitionals would be better suited to their environments than previous species, so they should have the advantage and abound in nature.

What makes you think that there aren't any existing transitional species?

Every living thing you see may be a transitional.
We just don't know which ones are transitioning to extinction, which to new forms, and which to continued existence in a comfortable and stable ecological niche.
