That’s a roadrunner? I’ve never seen a real one outside of the cartoon before. How cool is he? Didn’t know they sat on fences…I just thought they zoomed around the desert being chased by coyotes.
My cherry tomatoes are just now getting ripe enough to eat. If only I can beat the Schnauzer boys (who have already claimed the first few on the bottom) and get enough for the hubs and I. Nothing is better than vine ripened tomatoes fresh from the garden. Num-num.
Wow, they sure took liberties with the road runner character, didn’t they? I wonder what we’d call that bird if it had been named before roads were common. Sand sprinter, maybe? 😉
Aw, that reminds me of a few years ago when I had a roadrunner living here. He would come up on my back deck and look in my bedroom patio doors. I enjoyed him so much. I wonder where he went? Probably moved to New Mexico:-)
I love the roadrunner. I am another who has never seen one in person, although I’ve been in the desert SW where they should be found. I probably just overlooked them.
Love that hibiscus, never seen them that color. We usually can only get them in red here. Cool shots of the roadrunner, he was quite cooperative for you.
Ha! That roadrunner made me laugh. I was on vacation in Arizona once and there was a roadrunner that would make the trek from one end of the pool area to the other – every day at the same time. Clocking out after a long day at work, I guess. *smile*
LOL I’ve never seen a real roadrunner before! I wish we had them here in WV!!! hehe I was just looking at my lil tomato plant on the porch, the lil cherry tomatoes are finally turning red!! Beauty Full flower!!!
I like your roadrunner on the fence photos! We have a lot of them here. They will follow you around, especially if you feed them. One of the few birds that will eat rattlesnakes……..
While we try to understand all of the creativity efforts one must muster to do a daily blog, we certainly look forward to reading yours every day!! You are EXCELLENT at writing and sharing “your world”.,.. we miss our daily glimpse into that….
Hope you are getting some much needed rest!!
