Excellent detail here. My wife's uncle would bet people that he could catch a roadrunner by hand. He could.. The secret, let them fly three times, tire out, and then carefully pick up.

Congrats on your features of this stunning close-up.

I must confess that for many years I did not give much attention to birds. In my childhood we had parakeets (blue and green) at our house and I liked them a lot. Maybe 4 years ago a canary showed up at my door and I kept it. That's how I fell in love with birds. I spent a lot of time reading about them and watching our national photographers' photos. There are so many. To identify them is a challenge. We also don't have roadrunners but I have read about this species. It's a very curious bird!
