DinApril Day 11: A Paleogene dinosaur (that your mother saw).
Welcome to DinApril 2025, where instead of recycling my list from last year, I made my mom come up with the dinosaurs! Our eleventh day features a Paleogene dinosaur: Lithornis celetius! This female has encountered a Restes lizard on a tree and is internally debating over whether to eat him.
Lithornis is apparently one of the first new dinosaurs to evolve after the K-T Extinction. Cool beans.
Coloration inspired by the gray tinamou from Colombia.
