Submitted

“Anchiornis” was created specifically for VINS’ exhibit “Birds are Dinosaurs,” by paleo-artist Todd Marshall.

QUECHEE — The Vermont Institute of Natural Science has expanded its exciting, new exhibit, “Birds are Dinosaurs,” by adding a Pteranodon model with a ten-foot wing span, a Velociraptor model, and a Velociraptor Freeze in the form of a wall hanging. In addition, the exhibit now includes a Velociraptor dig in which one can pretend to be a paleontologist discovering the fossil.

The exhibit, which runs through the end of October, traces the amazing story of how birds evolved from dinosaurs. Admission includes the exhibit.
