Big Bend NP roadrunner


I have been traveling he last two days and got to Big Bend National Park late yesterday afternoon. Though a cold front cooled this far southwest Texas location down, it did get into the 60's at the Rio Grande Village; however it was mostly cloudy which makes it more of a challenge to get good bird pics.

In the case of this super-cooperative Greater Roadrunner, I was able to get these good shots. As these pics show, roadrunners actually have some nice color in their plumage. The quality of these pics is good enough that both pics can be double-clicked to enlarge--double-clicking the top pic gives a really nice eye-to-eye view. SeEtta
