Dinosaur Swamps is the second album by the Flock. It was released in 1970.

The cover art, featuring pterosaurs, is modified from a mural painted by Constantin Astori.[2] The titles of the first two tracks ("Green Slice" and "Big Bird") refer to items found on the album cover, while the titles for all the remaining tracks can be found on the hand-drawn map inside the gatefold sleeve.
