That's a rather shallow list. The Archaeopteryx has recently been reclassified by paleontologists as a true bird because each of its features is either found in true birds or is absent in many reptiles. The Sinornis: long bony fingers and teeth ≠ dinosaur. The Yinlong and Anchisaurus having two to three bird-like features doesn't say they evolved. Even evolutionists don't widely agree birds evolved from these two types. Tiktaalik: one year after its pronouncement as a transitional fossil, footprints were discovered in an older strata. Creatures like the stickleback fish being of different sizes is mere small-scale adaptation. They are still stickleback fish! These examples are at the bottom of the barrel. Each organism is unique in its own right and follows to have been created that way. 80 million years and all they have are some dinosaurs with thick-domed skulls, others with delicate limbs, and a bird with long fingers and teeth? There should be some missing links with some identical features to a species, while actually being a genetically different species (unable to reproduce). One organism having a shell and short snout is a far cry from an organism with an entirely different type of shell and dissimilar short snout.
