Baby Deinonychus Could Fly

[Tyto_Theropod]

These are all very good points, HD-man. I must say, I did think it a little unlikely myself, but I put it down to good old-fashioned not accepting new ideas! I also think Naish's reconstruction looks a little front heavy to be gliding. If it had wing feathers on its hind legs, like Microraptor, it would look better.

Many thanks for the kind words.
