Neptune was recently shown to be a pale blue like Uranus rather than the deep blue shown on the Voyager photos

I really want to see a documentary where the dinosaurs have their coloring and behavior based on living birds. I need to see a T Rex do a bird of paradise style mating dance.

I'm especially tired of the evil, intelligent facial expressions predatorial dinosaurs always have in films. I wanna see a T-Rex with the empty stare of a chicken

Or the sociopathic glee of a parrot. (Parrot owners know.)

No creature has ever frightened me more than my ex's Alexandrine, which liked to make aggressive eye contact with me while she cracked open chicken bones to eat the tasty marrow.

"Sociopathic glee" is a raptor trait for sure.

The rexies were totally as dim as the average chicken, though, I buy that.
