*The Dinosaurs Among Us Presented by: Dr. Kim Adelson Tuesday, November
9, 7:00 PM*

[image: meeting]Virtually all paleontologists agree that birds evolved from
dinosaurs, and most even believe that birds are, in fact, real living
dinosaurs. The flood of new data coming from newly discovered fossil beds -;
primarily from China -; has only solidified that position. Learn about the
structural and behavioral similarities between birds and the more "classic"
dinosaurs they evolved from. You will not only be surprised as to how
dinosaur-like birds are, but also how very bird-like dinosaurs were. You
will never think about *T. rex *or mallards or chickadees in the same way
again!

Kim Adelson was a professor of psychology for almost 30 years; she has won
teaching awards at 3 different universities. Before she switched fields to
better study behavioral evolution, she earned a master's degree in
evolutionary biology. Paleontology has been one of her avocations since she
was a child. She is an avid bird watcher and is on the Boards of the Black
Hills Audubon Society and the Friends of the Nisqually National Wildlife
Complex.
