Candy-Colored Dinosaurs

Zoo Tuesday: Centrosaurus

And now for something completely different: a frost-covered centrosaurus seen first thing this morning.

Rawr! 

Ice-cold Corythosaurus

The last couple of months at work have been all about dinosaurs ... I'll be able to post more about that after February 4.

Meanwhile, I needed to step away from the  Photoshop for a few minutes, so  I took a walk up to Prehistoric Park. We have had two days of ice fog and I wondered how the dinos were doing.

This corythosaurus is one of my favorites...but I did get back to the Photoshop later to give him a brand new eye.

Here's a cool item on Ebay: A Vintage Dinosaur Table Lamp Light 60s Kitch T-Rex Dino.

A Tyrannosaur table lamp, circa 1960s, that works!

I kinda want it, but would it go with the 1930's borzoi lamp next to the bed?

Giant Eggs of Dinosaur Found in Mongolia

Peking…..Above is shown Roy Chapman Andrews, zoologist and hunter, who was in charge of The Third Asiatic Expedition of the American Museum of Natural History, which has just returned here after five months on the Mongolian Plains. The specimens brought back by the expedition are declared to be the most interesting in recent years. Giant eggs, five or six inches long and proven to be those of dinosaurs of ten million years ago, are among the principal specimens. The prehistoric and colossal reptiles had nests just like ordinary fowl of the present era. The expedition is bringing back also about nine tons of fossils, comprising 72 skulls and twelve complete skeletons of these “terrible lizards” as the two Greek words forming the term “dinosaur” describe them.
