The sun just came up and the Roadrunner was enjoying the warmth.

Love it---it oozes warmth--The color is just beautiful. Given the chance I'd trade places with that bird right this second--til the sun goes down anyway.

Doesn't look anything like the Roadrunner chased by Wylie Coyote.

Yo Azzaro,

That's the best picture of a Roadrunner I've ever seen. It's also the only picture I've ever seen of one " puffed " up like that. Great job , buddy.

Howdy Azzaro,

I have to agree with everyone else, that is one Fine Roadrunner Shot, love the beautiful light.

I had read one time that the Roadrunners have a dark patch on their backsir necks that they ruffle up to expose that spot to warm themselves up faster during the cold weather????

Very nicely done.

Stunning! Brilliant! It truly is a wonderful shot, Azzaro--great lighting and a can't-miss pose. Right place, right time, right photographer!

OK, so I sorta like this one . . . just a little bit. :clap :clap

Hey Azzaro - glad to know I've been missed! :D I was out for 2 weeks with a bad back and couldn't shoot or sit at the computer. Now I'm better but I am trying to get other stuff under control so I can spend more time on my photos and get busy posting again.

I'll try to find something from the Shootout that hasn't been seen yet and get it up for your viewing pleasure.

Cheers,
Lauren
