Roadrunner species generally range in size from 18-24 inches in length from tail to beak. The roadrunner is large, slender, black-brown and white streaked ground bird with a distinctive head crest. It has long legs, strong feet, and an oversized dark bill. The tail is broad with white tips on the 3 outer tail feathers. They have a blank patch of skin behind the eye that is shaded blue proximally to red distally. The lesser roadrunner is slightly smaller, not as streaky, and has a smaller bill. They are large long-legged birds with long thick dark bills and long dark tails. They are terrestrial, and although capable of flight, they spend most of their time on the ground. During flight the wings are short and rounded and reveal a white crescent in the primary feathers. Roadrunners and other members of the cuckoo family have zygodactyl feet (two toes in front and two toes in back). Roadrunners are able to run up to 15 miles per hour and generally prefer sprinting to flying.

Saw this Roadrunner, he was running on the road, then went into the bushes, and so I waited for him to go across the road.
Roadrunner on our back porch. He was out there for 15 minutes hanging out. We've got three running around the back yard.

Part of the flock hanging around the jewelry box. An old piece of dress-up equipment from a garage sale way back when. He's missing his eye - it was sparkling and red. He's also missing a wing. Digital photo. Photoshop. (2008)

This roadrunner spent up to 20 minutes preening in one spot on the wall. Quite the hedonist. // See an album of 10 roadrunner pix, including one great stretch. www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=2022883&id=1108374610&...

Created in Ultra Fractal 5, using the BarnsleyJDeLuxe formula in three layers, and Pixel formula in the frame layer; Outside Coloring of Even Odd, and Frames-Jos. I like experimenting with the various Barnsley formulas from time to time - they can be fun! The roadrunner is facing to the right, by the way - can you see him?
