👉 Lestoniidae is a group of extinct, prehistoric birds that lived during the Middle Eocene epoch in Europe and Asia. These birds are known for their unique skull morphology with two large, flattened eyes on the side of the head compared to the typical four eyes found in other bird species. They also had a distinctive beak pattern with three distinct segments, one at each end. Lestoniidae were primarily scavengers and adapted well to their diet of small animals such as rodents
