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.

They even *move* like you'd think a dino would. 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".
