Could This Have Been The First Swan ?



Was fascinated to read about recent fossil discovery on the BBC and in Nature Journal showing an unusual dinosaur bird, thought to have roamed Mongolia 75 million years ago.


                        It is so Swan like and of similar size, able to walk on land and swim and hunt in water.
I have often thought when dealing with Swans that their skin was so dinosaur like


Humans have only been around such a short space of time, so when I see something like this dated 75 million years. I can easily imagine the evolution of Swans - find it a little mind blowing !
