He's back- or she. I don't know. But the Roadrunner is back.
He's so fun to watch. I was walking out of the office when I saw him and ran back in for the camera. I was able to capture a few shots of him.
I was under this huge Oak out front so the light wasn't great but I like the way the photos turned out anyway.
He at one point had sticks in his mouth so I am not sure if he was building a nest/going to one or just carrying around sticks. Here is a shot (not so great) of him with the stick in his mouth.
I will keep my eye out and see if perhaps he has a nest. In years past they hung out in the back and had a nest in this old fountain we had.
I am just glad to see him!!!
They are so much fun to watch.
ReplyDeleteI hope you have a nest there since I haven't seen one in our neighborhood for several years. I'm sure their numbers are dwindling. At least around here.
I think we have a nest- we saw him again yesterday so he's hanging around somewhere- I hate to stalk him too much cause I want him to stay. The old one was really personable and didn't mind people. He wouldn't go up to you or anything but he didn't run off either. He'd just look at you. So I am just semi-stalking.... haha
DeleteHello Kacky girl !
ReplyDeleteCooper is absolutely adorable in himself and his name !
And this road runner ? I was beginning to think they only existed in cartoons!! haha
You got some great shots of him/her .. and that stick thing is too funny ;-) a little OCD maybe ?? haha
Love seeing all the different flowers here too as well as the Monarchs .. we had NONE this year .. it has been great for bees but butterflies seemed to have disappeared .. hope they come back next year !!

Thanks! He's getting bigger every day!!
DeleteI know- how fun is that?? A road runner!!! He was so neat to watch. Bummer you don't have any Monarchs- maybe just not yet? Or you think totally? That is sad!!!! I love the butterflies- they just make you happy to see them flying around.
Yay! A happy return of your road runner - I've only seen one in cartoons. Wonderful photos.
ReplyDeleteI was really excited- he's really fun to watch. The one last year would walk down the center of the roadway. So cute.
