The story
Quarky befriends a feathered dinosaur to see how feathers, first made for warmth, slowly took to the sky.
What you'll learn

- Feathers first kept animals warm and showed off color.
- Flight began with gliding, a little farther each time.
- A chicken's scaly, clawed feet look just like a dinosaur's.
