EXCLUSIVE: PBS has gained exclusives access to the work excavating a fossil of the oldest modern bird, dating back some 68 million years, and is forging a documentary.

Rise of Birds, Dinosaurs Among Us [working title] is being made for the U.S. network’s science strand by Rise and Fall of the Mayas producer Pernel Media and will follow the work of Daniel Field, a Cambridge palaeontologist.

His discovery, uncovered three years ago, opened a new window of opportunity to tell the journey of how dinosaurs evolved into modern birds, survived the last mass extinction, and rose to be one of the most diverse classes of animals in the world.

The series, which counts France Télévisions, Ushuaïa TV, Radio Canada, NHK, and CCTV9 China (CMB) as partners, will investigate the latest discoveries and ongoing research on the extraordinary features of birds, the role of their feathers, their singing abilities, their wings, and how they became the undisputed masters of the sky.
