Very much a dude.
Thinking about Microraptorans, a group of small Dromaeosaurids closely related to Velociraptor with four wings and around the size of a raven.

Of course, Microraptor itself is great. Its fossils tend to look like pressed flowers with their detail.

Yes, those are feathers those arrows are pointing to.

And I really like Sinornithosaurus, a closely related species in Microraptor's clade, the Microraptorans.

Those are the two most well known taxa in this clade.
