July 19 NOON - The Parrot Club is extremely pleased to bring back Dr. Daniel Field, evolutionary paleobiologist at University of Cambridge in England for another talk to the club, this time over Zoom. Dr. Field going to talk to us about his exciting new discovery, the Wonderchicken, the precursor to modern day chickens and the oldest direct relative of modern birds ever discovered. The story was in worldwide news in March right before COVID-19 hit, but of course other stories took over the limelight. This bird was walking around Europe at the same time as T. rex and Triceratops, 700,000 years before the asteroid impact that killed off the dinosaurs!

The talk will be on Sunday, July 19th, at 12 noon EDT.

The talk will be live over Zoom and later uploaded to YouTube. To join the talk live, please email info@theparrotclub.org for access info as attendance is limited. Attendance is free.
