Dinosaur of the day Raphus, a secondarily flightless dinosaur which is often thought of as clumsy, but was actually swift-footed.
In dinosaur news this week:

- A new enantiornithine, Musivavis amabilis, was described from Liaoning, China
- Brevirostruavis macrohyoidus was described with a "hyper-elongated tongue" possibly used like a hummingbird or woodpecker
- Another bird like dinosaur, Kaririavis mater, was found in Brazil with feathers preserved on its foot
- A review of over 100 specimens resulted in two new dinosaurs being named Meemannavis & Brevidentavis
- Stan the T. rex was tracked down to Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates
- Stan will be a part of the upcoming Natural History Museum Abu Dhabi which is scheduled to open at the end of 2025
