Do you have an actual argument against the findings?

Hey that is what becomes their 'mountain of evidence' when viewed from afar.

About the only definitive statement in the whole article is as follows.

The skeletons, headless as they are, offer plenty of evidence for a life on the water. Its upper body structure offers evidence that Gansus could take flight from the water, like a modern duck, and the webbed feet and bony knees are clear signs that Gansus swam.

Everything else is speculation. However in this case a duck may truly be a duck, and it is only in the eyes of the evolutionist that it fills yet another 'gap'.

Why? Because its not couched in absolute terms? Scientists aren't arrogant enough to assume they know everything and not all of us hinge our self image on rigidly held beliefs. Contrary to what you want to believe, life isn't about dichotomies.
