Is it half full or half empty? With a vivid red streak near his eye, he caught a lizard in my garden. He shook it in his beak until it fell to pieces. He ate the lizard in about five bites. Roadrunners live in mated pairs in a territory year round. I see this guy all the time combing the area for food. I love his feathers, so aero dynamic. They can run up to 15 mph, usually chasing food.
Yesterday he was running around the property and he ran up near the outside of the chicken coop. He stopped and was looking inside. All of the chickens were inside the coop but quickly ran outdoors to check him out. They stood on one side of the fence looking him over and he stood on the other side looking at them. They are about the same height. After about one minute of gazing at each other, he resumed his roaming. I thought it was kind of funny.
