Reminds me of when I used to watch cartoons when I was younger and one of the characters would get smacked in the head with a mallet and a bump like that would rise up immediately. Other than that, it's head reminds me of something dirty... =Þ:::

Looks for me like a Pseudovates arizonae.

I have never seen that species before. The raptors look amazing, I love the colors on the inside of the raptors. How often does it show wings? (I searched Google images and all I found were some pics of preserved specimen's wings spread)
