Description "Borsti", the tiny little German compsognathid of the genus Juravenator. It was found with scale impressions on the tail, so I restored it with a very sparse covering of feathers, in contrast to its the fully-fluffy relative Sinosauropteryx. Borsti would have been close to the origin of primitive feathers, but it lived alongside animals with modern feathers, one of which is blowing around the windy lagoon shore.

Aww...that's a pretty durn cute dino. Very interesting about the tail-scales indeed. Great job! Especially on the landscape. Simple and unobtrusive, but still interacting with the dino.
