Roadrunner!

Hugh looked up from the couch earlier to see a roadrunner looking in at him from its perch on the porch railing! By the time I got there with the camera, and then back again with the camera with its battery (which had been charging) in it, the bird had flown onto the patio, and then it left the patio for a nearby tree. Funny, one doesn't think about roadrunners flying, but they do. I've never seen one so close before. They're extraordinarily beautiful!

Yes, this is a roadrunner! They are rather large but nowhere near their cartoon equivalent, which looks nothing like them, in my opinion.
