Products description
| Here is a quite large fossil bird like dinosaur feather in the Cretaceous amber of Burma. Fossil feathers of bird-like dinosaurs are among the most desirable inclusions in amber from Myanmar. The present fossil dinosaur feather itself measures about 13 x 9 mm. It is embedded in a nice and clear Burmite Amber. The delicate detailed of the fossilized Dinosaur feather are well visible. One can see on this fossil how the feather became stuck in the still sticky tree sap way back in the cretaceous age. Fossil inclusions are actually not that rare in Burmese amber. However, bird and dinosaur feather are much rarer than insects’ fossils in the Burmite. | |||
