Thanks Duncan... Its funny, I regularly think the same thing... I've got 4 Lizards at the moment, 2 bearded dragons, the Water Dragon and a young frill neck... Their markings are all so different, sometimes with intensely vivid colouring that to the average person would have to be seen to be believed.. they also change colour frequently depending on their body temperature, mood, surroundings etc... We might know what the physical structure of dinosaurs was like, but we will never know just how magnificent an animal they really were... Given the diversity of the colours of reptiles around today, I dare say that dinosaurs were FAR more beautiful than the creators of Jurassic Park would have you believe... Even in the same species, Bearded Dragons, I've currently got a white/yellow male amd Yellow/lavender male... I had a high orange one a few months back, and I also had a lemon yellow one... I've seen bright reds, greens, browns, greys... all of them with very individual markings and patterns... I've even seen in one clutch of hatchlings 3 different colour variations and 20 hatchling lizards that were all identifiable by their markings...
I would give anything to be able to see what dinosaurs looked like - To that end, I look towards space, in search of intelligent life that can help me build a time machine out of a delorian...
Awesome man.. Your in-law sounds beautiful... in a scaly, sharp clawed and razor sharp teeth kind of way..
