A giant goose-like bird that was the size of a light aircraft and had a beak like a crocodile’s jaws has been found to have soared above Britain 50 million years ago.

A fossil skull preserved in London clay has been identified as belonging to a relative of modern ducks and geese with a wingspan of 5m (16ft) and armed with a beakful of teeth. The ancient creature has been nicknamed Mother Goose by Gerald Meyr, the palaeontologist who identified it, because of the bird’s extraordinary size.

This is even better than fucking dinosaurs!

I wish I could ride one... in a thong and kneehigh boots.  Heavy metal style.

That reminds me. I need more pics of you in that trenchcoat and fedora for photoshop purposes. You're my muse.
