The researchers point out that there is no evidence to suggest the fossil discovery points to a once widespread Antarctic lake ostracod fauna: "It is most likely their introduction was by chance, perhaps via birds as dispersal of ostracod eggs attached to the feathers or feet of migratory birds is an important influence on modern ostracod distribution."

perhaps by the same birds that once sat in the trees

that left their stumps in the ground and fossilized bark

and leaves...after the birds flew back to where they migrated from?

So the old Antarctic birds, bark, and trees aren't there any more?

Why?

Did the boids just eat, sit, and leaves?
