I love that last pic--he looks like a penguin with a long tail.

This is so neat! Do you plan to feed him at all? I'd love to have a roadrunner as a friend! Thanks for showing us photos of him.

Kjay, I don't know what he eats. I'll have to research it.

Don't they eat snakes and other creepy-crawlies?

Toss him a rattlesnake.
Love the pics! After mockingbirds, roadrunners are my fave. We have 'em all over the place down here.

Awe, what a sweet lil critter of nature. We don't have those here. I love nature, animals, and feeding my fine feathered friends. In the midwest frozen winters water is VERY hard for the birds to find. My flying babies even have a heated bird bath I supply year round. It's amazing. No matter how bad the temps, the unit performs like a champ (only 1" deep H20 also). It draws even more birds because you are the main stash of it all. If you figure out what he eats, put out a very shallow dish of water. He might be thrilled. Thx for sharing those pics

Yipee!
I was hoping you would get some pics of this cute guy. I have only seen a roadrunner in books before this post (well I have seen the roadrunner cartoon too).
Thanks Sundial for sharing.
What does a roadrunner sound like? I assume it does not go me meep like the cartoon.Last edited by Trekhawk; 03-04-2009 at 04:24 PM.
The most effective way to do it, is to do it.
