Baby Ducks

Ducks are mostly aquatic birds. Generally, smaller than swans and geese, they may be found in both fresh water and sea water. The word duck comes from the Old English “duce” “diver”, a derivative of the verb “ducan” “to duck, or dive”, because of the way many species in the dabbling duck group feed by upending.

Velociraptor

The Velociraptor, or raptor, is most familiar to the general public due to its prominent role in the Jurassic Park motion picture series. In real life, however, the Velociraptor was roughly the size of a turkey, considerably smaller than the approximately 2 m (7 ft) tall and 80 kg (180 lb) reptiles seen in the films (which were based on members of the related genus Deinonychus). Today, Velociraptor is well known to paleontologists, with over a dozen described fossil skeletons, the most of any dromaeosaurid.[:]
