Dinosaur? Bird? Dinosaur?Bird?

Today my Mom, Kai and I, were watching a bird documentary. It included the history of how birds came to be and from the dinosaur age, they were talking about a dinosaur called "Archaeopteryx." They were the first "dinosaur birds."
This is a photo of the fossil of the Archaeopteryx. It was found in Germany in 1891. This is a cool dinosaur and a great discovery!!

I think we may have seen one during our Jamaica Bay Wildlife Refuge walk. No, it was another bird :)

Cool dinosaur bird! If you hadn't said it was a dinosaur, I wouldn't have known.
