:iconabiogenisis:
During a severe late cretaceous drought, a brushfire burns through the dry ferns of a North American prairie. Small animals fleeing the flames, or roasted by them, make excellent snacks for predators near the fire front.

The pterosaur Quetzalcoatlus is accompanied by two curious Troodon as it stalks warily towards this potential feast.

I love the use of reds and browns with an otherwise black-and-white palette. Also, I'm glad I'm not the only person who's ever thought about Mesozoic prairie fires.

NICE :D
I'd figured that like a stork, Quetzalcoatlus would walk by brushfires to collect animals running for their lives :)

I'm trying to come to terms with bipedal dragons as "the right sort" in fantasy art/literature... and this picture helped me a lot!
