I can proudly say that out of all the animals I've drawn, the most realistic ones are the birds (yeah I know one is an enantiornithan but still a bird).
All my friends keep saying that, even my dad says it and know I also can see it. What do you believe guys?? Do you agree?

Longipterygidae is a group of birds famous for their long jaws with teeth only at the very end. As no member of the group has a fossil with a complete skull, we created reconstructions based on several specimens (different colors in the image).

Today's is Q.

Qiliania, from prehistoric China, was tiny (about the size of a small sparrow) with long legs. One of the Enantiornithes, an ancient lineage of birds with clawed wings and toothy snouts.

And she's doin a big stretch. Bird yoga, anyone?

Even though it's been a year, I still can't believe Enantiornithine birds, or at least one genus or enantiornithine bird, inhabited Madagascar during the Late Cretaceous. Makes you wonder if there were any genera/species that lived on the island and the African Continent.
