Dinosaur Storks?


These things look awesome. For me, they could have jumped right out of an SF movie, an alien world or be a magical creature of terror. However, they are nothing but a class of Pterosaurs that decided flying wasn't worth the effort.

Yeah, those are pretty strange looking reptiles. I guess they must be a bit like the walking birds we have these days as well though. Though maybe they aren't quite as mobile as say an ostrich would be.

That's pretty cool. I'd never heard about these guys before.

Though, I have to admit, from the picture it looks like they're all wearing blue berets!

Doesn't it? emoticon

I thought there were things they found in fossils and just tried to keep - looks a bit silly, though.

Strange critters.

 I wonder if those flaps were of any use in swimming....
