So, theropods were some sort of big birds, right? With feathers and all... Scratching themselves like my budgies do...... Moreover since fleas could sometimes almost reach a size of 1,5 inches long back then!!

It is the typical example of a picture that popped up in my mnd but took a very, very long time to come to fruition. This one also went through a failed attemps (to be seen here http://www.furaffinity.net/view/24088634/ ) that forced me to completely re-do it with a totally different perspective (exceptional since usually the first rough directly grows into the final picture, just ging through minor adjustments). I had indeed many trouble drawing what I had in mind, I wanted it to look like a bird scratching, and looking silly, but also cute, with its jaw side feathers erected and a totally improbable pose on one leg.
It is a strange picture in that I did not like that second and last attempt also at first (I almost abandoned it too, that you can see by the fact I did it in two times separated by almost a month), but as time passes I am beginning to appreciate it despite knowing I still haven(t been able to fully express what I wanted.

I did a version with a blurry leg and foot for fun, that can be seen here: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/24088660/
