Are birds dinos

Answer 1

Yes they are. Birds first originated in the Jurassic period around 150 million years ago, in the form of archeopteryx. Archeopteryx was regarded as the first link from Dinosaurs to Birds, however it was still not regarded as a 'true' bird but a dinosaur that would feature characteristics that would be found in their descendents the birds. Features found in Archeopteryx include feathers (Was actually common among its relatives the raptors) long enough that it could glide. These gliding wings would eventually developed into flying wings in the later future.
