#FossilFriday: the displaced vertebrae at the base of the unexpectedly long neck of the Plesiosaurus discovered by Mary Anning in 1823 which caused some discussion at the time, and Henry De la Beche's fun interpretation of how the bones came to be displaced in his 1829-31 lithograph Duria antiquior.

Left, photograph of the long neck of a plesiosaur skeleton with a scatter of vertebrae (circled) at the base of the neck; right detail from an 1830 reconstruction of a plesiosaur with its neck being bitten by a large ichthyosaur.

Went to @edenproject.bsky.social to see their Wildlife Photographer of the Year exhibition. Had another look at their T Rex too, and found a supercool @bobnichollsart.bsky.social exhibition.
All the wins! #Birds #Dinosaurs
