Auction of dinosaur nest

A dinosaur nest dating from white chalk. Scientists have identified this as a flying dinosaur nest, in which there are fossil eggs, a total of 22, but only 19 are intact.

The eggs are still young and can be seen by the eyes of the embryo curled inside, all of which are arranged in a circle around the edge of the nest.

The nest was found in Guangdong China in 1984 and later acquired by an American collector in 2003. The nest will be auctioned in Los Angeles later this week.

Bonhams' director of all things said " seeing this nest is like a fantasy ". But at least one scientist thought that this was an artificial nest of the museum. Estimates of this nest will be sold for $ 180,000-220,000.
