I saw a RoadRunner bird yesterday at close range. Those things look for all the world like you'd think a theropod dino would. Even has a nice little crown on its head like some dinos. They even *move* like you'd think a dino would.

Course I haven't really studied this stuff, so I'm probably wrong somewhere. It is interesting though.

Parrots sometimes get neurotic syndromes (or perhaps skin disorders) which cause them to eventually pluck out all of their own feathers. I've seen quite a few naked parrots as a result of this, and they look very distinctly reptilian. You could do a few close-up videos, and use them as stand-ins for nightmarish dinosaurs in some low-budget remake of "Land of the Lost".
