Happy Thursday BIRDSday! We're currently chatting about how natural selection drives evolution, how paleontologists reconstruct extinct organisms, and then we'll be getting into the dinosaurian evolution of birds.

Bluesky's up again, so here's a (late!) announcement for today's #paleontology stream: We just got done talking about that new Deinosuchus paper, and we're about to look at that new pub on Microraptor's weird hindleg 'wings' and feathers before Thursday BIRDSday commences

In our East Coast matchup between Dryptosaurus and Priconodon, the obscure (and possibly supergigantic) ankylosaur has prevailed. Next week: Priconodon vs. Torosaurus!
