a pic of a roadrunner.

I chased it around a bit and it finally got peeved enough with me that it puffed up to scare me off.

What did you think I was going to a post? An armadillo? I would if I could find one alive. They always seem to be flattened on the road. Poor guys.

    Nice captures. thumb.gif If you want a live armadillo let me know. I trapped two of the suckers last week and a new one moved in yesterday. I figure I should have him trapped by Tuesday. Do you prefer Fedex or United Parcel?

    How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"

    Thanks for the offer, but no thanks. One around my house would drive the dog even more crazier than it already is. rolleyes1.gif

    Nice shots! thumb.gif I ran into a roadrunner last weekend, but it was faster! I did manage to get a few crappy shots.
