The complete bird was discovered in a fosillized tree sap, that has remained untouched for 99 millon years. It was just a few days old at the time of death, and represents a pre-history par exellence example of life ever recovered.

Cinematography stories tending on fosile revivals is a pure science fiction, but pseudoscience is not always only a fiction: archaeology teams every now and then find fosilized primal animals and beings, untouched in amber.

This burman-discovered bird includes whole body, with wings, head and claws.

It's coming from extinct family of Enantiornithines.

It will be exhibited in Shanghai Museum of Natural History in July.
