My Reaticodactylus should be also a dromaeosaur at first, good to see it now in this form. I love the fragility of the branch, it clarify the lightness of the animal

Many thanks! I was inspired by a Loggerhead Shrike I saw while birding a few days back, and I liked the way the twigs swayed a little when it hopped on them.

Very cool idea. I also enjoy seeing the dromaeosaur 'sickle claw' being used as a climbing/branch-grasping agent.

Thanks! It felt somewhat strange to draw such a birdlike animal without the reversed perching toe, but there's something very pleasing about dromaeosaurs in trees.
I'm not sure how steady on the branch he is, though.
