A Beautiful Sinosauropteryx Fossil
Some of the fossils from China, such as the little feathered dinosaurs from Liaoning Province are exquisitely detailed. Below is a picture of the head of Sinosauropteryx which shows some amazing detail.
The head shows the distinctive covering of proto-feathers on the nape of the neck. Close inspection reveals that the covering of tufts of feathers covered virtually the entire body.
