[Maine-birds] Dinosaur Exhibit

We took our grandson to the Dinosaurs Unearthed exhibit at the Portland Science Center yesterday.  Interesting life-like -- and life-sized -- simulations, some that moved periodically and and roared like dinosaurs should (but maybe didn't.)  There are facsimile life-sized skeletons, fossils, drawings, explanatory text.  These included the dino-bird link, and fossil replicas of two early birds from China, including one enantiornithine.  If one has children/grandchildren/nephews the exhibit is recommended.  Even for those of us adults still captured by dinosaurs and their descendants.  Here's a small album of photos.
