Listen "Episode 37.5 - More Birds"
Episode Synopsis
Surprise!
We've gotten a lot of bird requests, so to follow up our Evolution of Birds discussion, we put together three mini-discussions based on other birds our listeners have asked to hear about:
1. The evolution and fossil history of flamingos.
2. The fossil record of the famous predatory "terror birds."
3. Argentavis and Pelagornis, history's largest flying birds.
Time markers:
Intro: 00:00:00
Flamingos: 00:02:30
Terror birds: 00:23:30
Giant flying birds: 00:46:30
