This is 13 min long recent lecture by prof. Sergey Savelliev "The brain and a problem of evolution from dinosaurs to birds". It is in Russian, but at the 9:36 mark, there is an animation that illustrates his and Vladimir Alifanov theory. Basically, it explains the following points that the current theory of birds evolution doesn't explain satisfactory:
- the biological necessity of reptiles to get into the water environment (plenty of food) vs,. climbing on trees (less food then on the ground)
- why the birds are walking on 2 legs
- why the birds developed large breast
- why birds developed wings and feathers
