08 Roadrunner on the Roof

Quail Creek, AZ

One of my luckiest and most unusual shots. I was waiting for my elusive male cardinal, when a roadrunner I had spotted earlier decided to climb/fly onto my roof. I have never seen a roadrunner this high off the ground. And the roadrunner was catching the light from the setting sun.Then to add to the luck, the rising (Waxing Gibbous) moon was visible as well.

1965 - and out of highschool for a couple of years. I should remember it.

Simpler times - I would be happy to join you there.

Meep Meep! Anyone remember this song from 1965?

I remember starting to learn to play the bass guitar on this song. Please take me back to simpler times.

Actually this entry is my favorite of yours so far. Paul

Roadrunners have a very unusual, and distinctive, call.

Can he sing or play violin?
