How the structure of feathers in the Cretaceous tells us about their evolution The specialization of a small wrist bone, the pisiform, helps birds to fly A key wing muscle that helps birds fly appears to have evolved by fusing cells from multiple muscles How often birds, bats, and insects flap when flying may be related to a built in constraint related to the vortex their wings generate with each flap More Microraptor specimens (with soft tissues!) show it was a decent flier A set of raptor dinosaur tracks indirectly shows it used its arms to help it run faster Just because a theropod dinosaur had short arms and not many fingers, doesn’t mean their hands and arms were useless Birds have a special organ to help them balance (which doesn't seem to matter as much for flight) Birds have been nesting in the Arctic for at least 73 million years How theropod dinosaur (non-avian and bird) faces are shaped may have followed a mathematical rule A study of the Chicago Archaeopteryx found that could definitely fly Birds need a lot of calories to fly, and Archaeopteryx, the oldest known bird, has three features modern birds also have to eat efficiently This episode is brought to you by the Colorado Northwestern Community College.

Plus a duck-billed dinosaur with a strong jaw and a couple of small dinosaurs from the the U.S. and Europe Join us at www.patreon.com/iknowdino for dinosaur requests, bonus content, ad-free episodes, and more. In dinosaur news this week: A New Jurassic neornithischian dinosaur with a Voice Box. Pulaosaurus qinglong, from China’s Tiaojishan Formation, has only the second larynx ever found preserved with a non-avian dinosaur. Source The small ornithischian Enigmacursor mollyborthwickae was found in the Morrison Formation of Colorado. Reminding us that it wasn't just huge sauropods and stegosaurs eating plants in the Late Jurassic. Source A new ornithopod named Obelignathus septimanicus was identified from a stronger jawbone than other Late Cretaceous ornithopods (like Rhabdodon) in what is now southern France. It's name refers to the French comic character Obelix who has superhuman strength (like the "unusually robustly-built" jawbone on Obelignathus). Source An Early Cretaceous basal hadrosauroid, Cariocecus bocagei, was named from Portugal. It had a fused upper jaw and cheekbone, possibly letting it chew tougher plants than its relatives.
