Well, christmas came a month early this year; skimming through, @markwitton.bsky.social 's work is impresively thorough. Shame on the shifting consensus on juveniles mere months after publication of this edition, but still a must have.

🐊 Largest survey of skeletal disease in living crocodilians! Nearly half showed osteopathologies, w/trauma most common. Skulls were hit hardest, and non-traumatic issues like inflammation and joint degeneration rose w/size & age.

A group of Dorygnathus use a Seirocrinus raft as a hunting ground for fish, when a big Eurhinosaurus suddenly breaches the surface.
This scene takes place in Germany during the Early Jurassic, around 180 million years ago.

“Non-functional,” oil on wood panel.
This is the last of the paintings I worked on this summer. It felt nice to let social media take a back seat for a while so I could focus on art without any added pressure.

What might be my favourite fossil has been just published by Kiat et al. 2025. Years ago I saw a pic of this Anchiornis specimen in nat geo article and I audibly gasped.preserving not only the feathers but also the original patterns as well. I made this drawing on the spot. Maybe its time to do v2.0
