This finding could be considered the ancestor of modern birds that have never been discovered before.
Scientists say the bird, although known to fly, is primarily active and nesting underground. Their lifestyles are similar to those of turkeys and roadrunners that live in North America and are different from most birds today.
Scientists have named fossil this new bird 'Holland Lucerria.'
According to scientists, the legs and burning of this bird is very long, so they speculate that its lifestyle may be different from the majority of the current bird.
Many fossils of previously discovered birds show that the ancestors of most birds often live in coastal areas, however, the fossil 'Holland Lucerria' fossil is found in the great stratum. green.
Therefore, this finding will help scientists to learn more about bird evolution.
