So they found this adorable little dinosaur called Anchiornis

See those feathers? The skeleton they found was so well-preserved that scientists were able to examine the pigment cells in the feathers and compare them to those of modern day birds.

And they were able to do this with such accuracy that they know the coloration of this dinosaur. In life it looked something like this.

It just baffles me that we know the color patterns of an animal that has been dead for 161 million years

My favorite species, horned screamers, are actually partially domesticated where they’re native! They’re used as guards.

Emus, of course, are in the process of domestication and I can’t wait until we can fully domesticated them! They’re already plenty friendly, I’d love to see more projects on color mutations and temperament.

But my dream domesticated avian? Dodo birds, it’s too bad we killed ‘em all. They’re like the perfect mix of pigeon and chicken! Big and huggable! imagine dodo birds with domestic pigeon mutations; slippers, crests, frills, short beak, pouter dodo birds!!!

If we’re being lenient on what counts as a bird, then yutyrannus for sure, too! Even bigger and fluffier 😍 bet they’d be a pain in the ass to feed though.
