Bird With Toes Longer Than Legs

Bird with unusually long toes found fossilized in amber. Meet the ancient bird that had toes longer than its lower legs. Researchers have discovered a bird foot from 99 million years ago preserved in amber that had a hyper-elongated third toe. The study suggests that this bird might have used its toes to hook food out of tree trucks. This is the first time such a foot structure has been observed in birds. Source 2u.

The bird they are talking about is called Elektorornis chenguangi, which in greek means 'amber bird'. It was probably smaller than a sparrow!
