Here’s a few more of the amazing original theropods on display at the Tokyo @dinoexpo2019. Beautiful specimens of Anchiornis, Caudipteryx, Khaan, and more. Awesome to see them all in one place. #FossilFriday
My favourite is the elephant bird (Aepyornis spp.) that stood at 10ft tall (good lord) and despite essentially being a Huge Ostrich actually has today’s kiwis as its closest relative! Big dinosaur bird

FAIRIES & THE DEAD Evans Wentz (1911) recorded the Highland belief in #fairy hosts as the evil dead & Cornish Peskies as the souls of unbaptised babies, appearing at Twilight in the form of moths #FolkloreThursday #GothicFairies Images: Pirner 1888; Highgate; white plume moth
According to Cornish folklore, young girls were often transported to fairyland after breaking fern fronds. They would be confronted by a 'fairy widower' and would agree to look after his son with the promise:
'For a year and a day,
I promise to stay'

Found in Cretaceous rocks in Romania in the 1980s, Eurolimnornis was originally thought to be a bird. https://t.co/1znPjELstW
A quick sketch of @Midori_Zamas 's hesperornis Friend. The hesperornis is an ancient toothed bird that provided evidence for the theory of evolution. A set of fossil got delivered to the wrong person and helped start the Bone Wars and thus the discovery of plenty of dinosaurs.
1/ Cornish ladies used roses for divination. Walking backwards into a garden on Midsummer's eve (as you do), they would pick a rose, then place it in a bag... [A plate from 'Flora Londinensis', by William Curtis.] #FolkloreThursday #PlantLore
Other designs are purely aesthetic. Sparkpaw(Bakugou) is based on the Laperm while Stickypaw(Sero) is a Cornish Rex. Sometimes I just look at a cat and be like, yep that's definately *insert character here*.
