Hello tweeties,
i thought you might be interested to read a little

Biology that addresses the conflict between the fossil
record and molecular clock data regarding when modern
birds first appeared;

i also thought i'd point out that Cornell's Living
Bird magazine is now available free online for you to
read and enjoy;
