i asked the palaeoblr server for some animals to draw that get the short end of the stick when it comes to accurate, non-shrink wrapped reconstructions, and here are two of the three species i was suggested: sinornithosaurus and postosuchus

sometimes it’s incredible to think that hummingbirds are the smallest dinosaurs ever

The Lady Amherst’s pheasant is a species native to China and Myanmar, although there was a feral population in England until 2015, which is now believed to be extinct. The male is known for its brilliant plumage, the black and white “cape” of which can be spread in display (last three photos). The female of the species is a much more subdued brown (shown in photo 5). The Lady Amherst’s pheasant is closely related to the golden pheasant. (x x x x x x)

Prince Creek

Watched by a foraging troodontid, a herd of Arctic hadrosaurs walk along a moonlit beach in Alaska, 69 mya. Inspired by trackways left in volcanic ash at Prince Creek. The species depicted have unclear status at this moment in time, so let's call them Troodon sp. and Ugrunaaluk kuukpikensis/Edmontosaurus regalis.
