>>20977302Nobody who knows how to do a reconstruction would reconstruct fragile bird arms as some sort of fishing spear.
#1 Bird fingers have no claws anymore, it couldn't possibly use it's hands for fishing
#2 The bones are hollow, hit something with enough fore the bones will shatter instead of penetrating a fish
In addition, if a soft imprint of this animal, or a similar animal to this was found with feathers (like they find raptor specimens, some feathered because they are better preserved and others with no feathers because they aren't as well preserved), it would be shown with feathers, and as swans live near water sources, if one drowned it has a higher change of ending up with some fossilized soft tissue imprints and feather imprints because it would get covered my earth much easier.
