#Archovember Day 7 - Vegavis iaai
Listen. I know what you’re thinking. “But... Sarita, this is just a goose.”
Here is what’s special about this goose. First of all it’s not a goose, but a close relative. We don’t have a skull, but we do have a syrinx that shows it was capable of honking. But here’s the most special part: it lived in Antarctica... during the late Cretaceous.
This means it lived at the same time as ankylosaurs, hadrosaurs, ceratopsians, dromaeosaurs, and tyrannosaurs: some of the most famous dinosaurs!
Among many other bird species from this era, Vegavis shows us that at this point birds were already in the diverse groups they are today. T. rex could have hunted waterfowl, small birds could have pecked at Spinosaurus’ teeth to clean them, the giant Quetzalcoatlus would have shared the skies with these small, agile dinosaurs.
Vegavis serves to remind us that we are very lucky to have this huge diverse group of dinosaurs still sharing this planet with us today.
So next time you get chased by an angry goose, remember that that angry goose’s ancestors probably had to chase raptors away from their nests... and those angry geese probably won. And just look at which lineage survived extinction...

We present you our own #Dinovember 2020 prompt! 🎨
Every day of November you can draw one of the suggested creatures or something from the same family. Example: Day 5 I could either draw the suggested Alioramus or another tyrannosaur like Daspletosaurus.
We decided to use not-so-well-known families and species of dinosaurs to help them being more represented in the collective imaginary.
We hope you like it and feel free to tag us so we can see your work! Good luck!
Made in collab with @elfosilviviente on Instagram 🐸

It's #Dinovember so here's a feathered raptor Diego Brando! Or should we say, a Dio-saur? A Dio-nychus?

DINOVEMBER HAS COME
1 - Tototlmimus packardensis (From Nahuatl "tototl" - bird - and Latin "mimus" - mimic) - Late Cretaceous (72 Ma BCE) - Packard Formation, Sonora, Mexico
Formally described in 2016, Tototlmimus is one of the most recent genera of ornithomimosaurs native to North America, described from a partial skeleton without skull, placing it closer to the genus Ornithomimus, from the end of the Cretaceous, being approximately the size of an rhea. The Packard Formation, where it was found, was probably a large coastal plain, crossed by river deltas where this animal probably fed, using its long neck and toothless beak to catch aquatic vegetation and animals like lizards and amphibians that lived there, like a great heron or stork. Ornithomimosaurs are theropods specialized in running, having long rear legs with three fingers, suppressing the first finger - hallux - as a way to free its legs from the extra weight, allowing them to reach speeds in 30 and 70 km/h, being among the faster non-avian dinosaurs. Despite being theropods, related to large carnivores, these dinosaurs were probably omnivorous or entirely herbivorous, losing teeth throughout their evolution, using their longs necks and arms to reach their food in trees or bodies of water. The presence of feathers in these animals, similar to ostrich feathers, is practically confirmed by impressions on some fossils in addition to the evolutionary heritage, being members of Coelurosauria, the dinosaurus closest to birds. Underneath these feathers, there would be the presence of a bare skin without scales, similar, again, to an ostrich.

#Archovember Day 8 - Geosternbergia sternbergi
Since I did Pterodactylus, I wanted to also include a Pteranodon, as those two pterosaurs seem to be the only ones the average layperson knows about. However, Geosternbergia has a cooler crest, in my opinion, and it’s close enough (it could be considered to either be a species of Pteranodon, or its direct ancestor.)
Geosternbergia was one of the largest pterosaurs. On all fours, an adult male could have stood as tall as a human, and in flight could have had a wingspan of up to 19.7 ft! They were extremely sexually dimorphic, with the males being twice as large as the females, and with bigger crests.

DINOVEMBER
2 -  Hypsilophodon foxi (From Greek "high-crested tooth") - Early Cretaceous (130-125 Ma BCE) - Wessex Formation, Dorset and Isle of Wight, United Kingdom One of the most abundant fossils found on the Isle of Wight, the Hypsilophodon was one of the first dinosaurs studied by the British Museum, including by Richard Owen and Gideon Mantell in the 19th century. A bipedal and relatively small animal, only 2 meters long and weighing around 20 kg, this small ornithopod is one of the best studied members of its clade, having both characteristics considered "primitive", like five digits in its upper limbs, as well as advanced ones, including a "thumb" between these fingers, possibly used to manipulate their food, being also one of the best adapted dinosaurs for running, with rigid tail, long legs and aerodynamic trunk. Hypsilophodon's habitat, in the Wessex Formation, was a large area of woodlands and floodplains, with several lagoons, in addition to strong periods of drought and certain parts of the year, with Europe divided into several islands during much of the Mesozoic. According to some scholars, hypsilophodons would occupy a niche similar to that of small deer, such as duikers and chevrotains, feeding on various plants, such as ginkgos and cicadas. It shared its environment both with other larger herbivores, such as Iguanodon and Polacanthus, and with voracious predators, such as the spinosaurid Baryonyx and Eotyrannus, a primitive tyrannosauroid, as well as with turtles, lizards, primitive mammals and Enantiornithes, an avialan dinosaur clade very similar to modern birds, but retaining teeth and claws on their wings.
- Color scheme based on a Zebra Duiker (Cephalophus zebra) for the Hypsilophodon and a Barn Swallow (Hirundo rustica) for the Enantiornithid.
