Don't remember ever seeing one around here...

Guess he's in your backyard? I have seen one just south of Burleson not too long ago.
Wow! Haven't seen one of those since I lived in AZ.
They've been around north of Denton for a few years now. I guess the population is increasing.
Yup... see them pretty often in north Collin and Denton counties...Quote:

I have ran over a couple out in West Texas on my way to Lubbock. For some reason they liked to try to see if they could make it across the road before my CRX got to them. it averaged out about 50/50. I hated cleaning the feathers out of the engine compartment. It took weeks.
I had a pigeon fly into my truck window once while I was on the freeway. THAT was a mess, but it was at least on the outside of the truck, can't imagine what one inside the engine compartment would look like.Quote:

See those all the time here.
They probably could not prove they were US citizens in AZ and were deported. :)
Wrong state, but good effort. NM would be the correct answer for Albuquerque.Quote:

They have roadrunners in AZ too! And I know which state Albuquerque is in, thank you.
There is one that lives on our office grounds. It has been here as long as anyone can remember. It is pretty tame and will let you within a few feet of it, but I plan on catching it as soon as my order from ACME comes in.
Hehehehe too funny!

Do you often spend time at your window with a telephoto lens? What about at your neighbor's window?
Can I at least ride in your short bus?Quote:

Just to be clear that is a Greater Roadrunner which is native to the US. The road runners in Mexico and Central America look different... So this one wouldn't be deported... DUH
;)
We have two in our neighborhood out west of Ft. Worth. See some young'ins every year with them too. They are great for keeping the snake population down! Glad to see they are expanding in range some.
There is an obvious difference in the roadrunners of Mexico and Central America.
