Birds of a Feather Talk Together

44: House Wren, we also talk about The Archaeopteryx at the Field Museum

John Bates, Shannon Hackett, RJ Pole, Amanda Marquart Episode 44

This week we talk about the house wren, but first we talk a little bit about the newest addition to the Field Museum: The Archaeopteryx. A fossil called Archaeopteryx, with feathers, hollow bones, clawed wings, fifty tiny teeth, and a long bony tail, is the earliest known dinosaur that also qualifies as a bird.

The Chicago Archaeopteryx has the most complete skull of any Archaeopteryx fossil in the world. 

We then talk about the House Wren - it's a super fun episode that you'll enjoy. House Wren are so amazing, it was so much fun to learn all about them.
