Description
I took this road runner image in the Texas panhandle with my Nikon D3s, Nikkor 300mm lens with a 1.4 teleconverter. He hung around my back yard most of the afternoon looking for food. I applied a texture overlay and also used NIK Color Efex Pro.

I saw my first non-cartoon Road Runner on the side of the road between Lubbock, TX and Roswell, NM about 50 years ago. Great Capture Karen, and I’m sure not an easy one. Splendid image! L/F

Thank you, Barry, they are the coolest birds ever and difficult to get a picture of since they are almost always in constant motion.

Revisiting this little beauty. I have one that comes to the patio now. I have to chase him away since they will harvest the hummers from the feeder if you let them stay.
Karen Slagle replied:
Thank you Bunny. I have seen our road runners sit in the mesquite tree waiting for smaller birds to land. I even saw one catch and kill a young bird.
