The reason: a team of paleontologists from China, Canada and the U.S. announced last week that they've discovered not one, but two new species of small dinosaur, each of which was clearly covered with feathers. According to their report, which appears in the latest issue of Nature, the specimens not only cement the increasingly popular theory that birds are descended directly from dinos.
