SPIRITED AWAY 千と千尋の神隠し 2001, dir. Hayao Miyazaki

🌼 Field book of western wild flowers /. New York: Putnam, 1915.. Original source Image description: Illustration of a bronze-colored lily species labeled “Bronze Bells” and “Fritillaria atropurpurea.” The plant features slender green stems with long, narrow, slightly curved leaves. Five downward-facing, bell-shaped flowers with textured, dark bronze petals and visible stamens are prominently displayed at the top of the stems. The illustration has a muted, antique color palette on a plain beige background, typical of early 20th-century botanical prints, highlighting the plant’s structure and coloration for identification purposes.

So much of paleontology is "what did this beaked thing eat?" And then your best guess for years turns out to be so so so wrong.

Like Gastornis was thought to be a carnivore for decades and then carbon isotopes were like, "nah this thing was basically a giant goose honk honk".

Art by Ja Chirinos

Oviraptor was thought to be an egg eater, then much ink was spilled about whether it ate mollusks, and now it's thought to be an omnivore, but mostly a fruit/seed eater like a parrot.

Somehow this Adobe Stock image is the only art of an Oviraptor eating plants I can find. How is that?

And even birds with some teeth are getting in on these dietary mysteries.

Longipteryx was first thought to be a kingfisher-like hunter of aquatic prey, but it has since been found with seed contents in its guts, making it another surprise frugivore.
