Surprise!\nWe've gotten a lot of bird requests, so to follow up our Evolution of Birds discussion, we put together three mini-discussions based on other birds our listeners have asked to hear about:1. The evolution and fossil history of flamingos.2. The fossil record of the famous predatory "terror birds."3. Argentavis and Pelagornis, history's largest flying birds.\nTime markers: Intro: 00:00:00Flamingos: 00:02:30Terror birds: 00:23:30Giant flying birds: 00:46:30\nCheck out our blog for bonus info and pictures: http://commondescentpodcast.wordpress.com/\nFollow and Support us on: Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/commondescentpodcast Twitter: https://twitter.com/CommonDescentPCFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/commondescentpodcast/PodBean: https://commondescentpodcast.podbean.com/ iTunes: https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/the-common-descent-podcast/id1207586509?mt=2YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCePRXHEnZmTGum2r1l2mduw\nThe Intro and Outro music is \u201cOn the Origin of Species\u201d by Protodome.
