Evolutionists are claiming that the toucan beak of an early bird is an example of convergent evolution. It lived at the time of the dinosaurs, some 68 million year ago,
Researchers found the bird's partial but "exquisitely
preserved" skull in 2010 in a block of muddy sandstone. They didn't CT
scan it until 2017, Patrick O'Connor said. In that moment, they realized this
3-inch-long (8.5 centimeters) skull — so small it could fit in the palm of your
hand — had "a beak never before seen in the Mesozoic," study
co-researcher Alan Turner, associate professor of anatomy at Stony Brook
University in New York.
"Falcatakely made up its face with the same bones
and in a similar way as an animal like Velociraptor did,"
Turner said. "What is remarkable is that with this ancestral arrangement
of bones, Falcatakely evolved a beak
shape strongly reminiscent of modern birds with high, long upper bills."

did not expect to see such diversity among bird of that time, But take away the
millions of years, This looked just like a modern bird,
