I thought the pic in the OP was a leaf or a fossil or some sort.

@MacDUFFand @cherry  are right!

 

It's the tail of a 100 million year old dinosaur, covered in feathers (the tail, not the baby dino), caught in amber and discovered recently in Burma.

 

This is pretty exciting because it provides evidence for the relationship of dinos and birds Smiley Happy
