Sleepy dinosaur alert! Check out this beauty from Mongolia, it was found curled up at rest like a sleeping bird.
My latest for CNN is about a newfound species of alvarezsaurid; a non-avian dinosaur that's a cousin to the avian lineage, so it has many birdlike features. And now there's evidence of birdlike behavior, too!
(The hed's not mine, so TL;DR—birds ARE dinosaurs, and they shared some traits/behaviors with non-avian relatives.)
