Feathers and colours? Dinosaurs must have looked absolutely FABULOUS!

you say it as a joke, but look at the non extinct dinosaurs we have today,
most birds are indeed much more flamboyant than Jurassic park dinosaurs

Something that stands out to me is how the most colorful creatures are good at evasion. Birds and bugs flying or reef creatures have hiding holes. Other colorful life tends to be toxic.
For this reason I doubt the huge species had color that stood out from their environment.
