Kitties!
We have a daily visitor to our bird bath.
A roadrunner!
He comes in to drink and bathe between noon and one o'clock.
hee hee hee...bedraggled!
Our roadrunner is a Greater Roadrunner, and unlike the cartoon roadrunner, he doesn't say "beep beep", he makes a clacking noise. He hunts snakes and lizards an scorpions, and all the coyotes we've seen around here would eat him up in one gulp. And he's NOT purple!
The cartoon got the classic "Roadrunner Stance" correct though...
Happy Friday!

Very cool! When does Wylie Coyote show up??
ReplyDeleteOMC that is a funny looking burd. Do you suppose he tastes like chic-hen? We think maybe not since he eats snakes and other bitey things.

No beep-beep? You got a defective roadrunner there. I say to the grill with him.
ReplyDeleteThat was a treat and CK said it FOR me. Heeeee
ReplyDeleteOh, COOL! Even Joe had to come over and see the photo! Those are some great shots of him.
