2011-04-04 Roadrunners in the park

Today we saw one of the fastest moving birds from this area.  This road runner took me on a merry chase around the park.  This bird is a carnivore and eats anything.  Likes raw meat, kills snakes, other birds and their eggs and well as geckos and other small lizards.  Quite a remarkable bird.



 This is a mocking bird.  He not only mocks all kinds of sounds but has a remarkable
way of getting his food.  He hums and flaps his wings to frighten small bugs on the ground.
