Hi All- On Tuesday February 10th at 7:00 PM, I will be presenting a free public talk on dinosaur evolution and the origin of birds as part of Darwin Day 2015 at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville. The lecture will cover the major changes that transformed small meat-eating dinosaurs into the birds of today. I will also have some material to look at such as Archaeopteryx casts and some small dinosaur models. The talk will be in the University Center Auditorium on the main UT campus and parking is free after 5:00. Hope to see you there! Colin Sumrall, Knox County Colin D.
