Dromornis in profile
This is one of the Dromornis stirtoni profiles that I am more pleased with. The haughty expression might suit the bird because if it was carnivorous it would have been on of the largest ones in the ecosystem. It would have been at least the tallest and probably would not take any nonsense from other animals. I imagine it with a vulturine head with bare pink skin that can flush bright scarlet when the bird is angry and blanch when it is frightened. You can see this in living vultures and in turkey (Meleagris gallopavo) gobblers whose bumpy heads can change colour every few seconds with shifting moods. We are going to have a lot of fun!
