Life is always surprising, but sometimes I find something that make me smile! I found out tonight that tyrannosaurus rex laid eggs that were speckled, and modern birds inherited this egg camo from these very dinosaurs.
Picture from this article:
I had seen the science on dinosaurs being birds ancestors, and it is solid, But this is the first time I have seen science on dinosaurs laying speckled and colored eggs! It makes them a little more real to me.
I watched a show recently, where a very smart Lady did some pretty amazing things with a Tyrannosaurus Rex fossil, including finding some soft tissue.

I have seen two separate labs that have extracted soft tissue, and blood from dinosaur fossils, so dna is here in pieces now.
Forensic reconstruction methods should be able to re-assemble the entire genome from what they have now.
So not long....

They need to be south of the red river for that!
