Actually, one of the most serious problems for flood geology has yet to be
brought up - nesting sites. There are spots in Montana, Argentina, China and
many other places that have large dinosaur nesting sites, inclusing multiple
nesting sites in different strata. So we are to imagine, somehow, that in the
midst of this global flood, after the deposition of thousands of feet of
sediments already, large groups of dinosaurs managed to congregate and mate,
build nests, lay eggs, hatch them and raise them, then return there several more
times to complete the process all over again. Obviously this cannot be explained
by saying that all of the land had not yet been scoured clean, because the sites
lie on top of sediments that were supposedly laid down from the PC/C boundary to
the jurassic and triasic. It also cannot be explained by any hydrological
sorting hypothesis like size and differential mobility. It simply cannot be
explained using flood geology.
