Description Just a silly idea I got.
A pair of Cattle Egret-esque unenlagiines in breeding plumage hitch a ride upon a hadrosaur (supposed to be something like Secernosaurus).

I really wish things like this were more common in paleoart. I can imagine that dinosaurs and other prehistoric creatures interacted with each other in varied and fascinating ways.

Egrets do this (with sheep and cows), so it's totally plausible, at least for me.

I often picture birds like Cimolopteryx in Hell Creek following bigger dinosaurs like Edmontonia or Triceratops around for this reason myself.
When you're a small bird that's surrounded by much bigger relatives that can scare one of your main food sources out of their hiding places it would certainly be beneficial.

I like that drawing raptor or cattle raptor.
