Gorgeous male roadrunner in the wild strutting, dancing, hunting, perching, eating, drinking, roaming, resting, catching a bug, taking a dust bath, and staring at me close up in the Sonoran Desert of Arizona. Original music too.

  • When I was a kid I was obsessed with roadrunners even though I'm from the north...this vid brought back memories of that time....I still haven't seen one in the flesh (feather)... though I hope to within the next year:D Loved this footage and the music really gave off some great vibes:))

  • Thank you so much! I hope you get to see one in the feather real soon! :D

  • nice that we people in the north have a glimpse of roadrunner that is not the animated variety--great mood music....I'm craving chili verde now : )

  • thanks ! I had fun with the music -- was thinking "spaghetti western" : )

  • Great vid, must have been a beautiful moment doing it. I didn't even know it existed outside the cartoon. Now you did the coyotte and the road runner, maybe one day, you'll film them together ; beware of the dynamite !

  • thanks! And yes I hope to do a vid featuring both critters someday.

see all

  • thanks so much!

  • many thanks :)

  • Meep Meep! Hahaha XD Who could resist? Nice footage and GREAT music! Looks like he's a hot, dusty bird out there in the desert. Loved the quick dust bath, too. They're interesting birds but not terribly bright (as birds go)... I have some old footage of one trying to get around a 20-foot wide length of fence to get to his mate - he dashes back and forth dozens of times, missing the ends of the fence by inches and refusing to fly over it! Cracks me up. Anyway, great vid! :-)

  • Fantastic music!

  • I had the chance to watch a roadrunner outside the window of a restaurant in Yuma Az.

    the one beside Barneys Truckstop

  • beautiful video I love this bird so much ... it just gives me the feeling that it doesnt belong to this time

  • thanks for visiting -- I'd love to see your rendition of him!

  • ok, so I'll be the first to say,"Meep-meep!" and "What, no Wiley Coyote?" But he really is a pretty bird, I didn't realize they had red white and blue stripes by their eyes! Birds are always strange and wonderful creatures to me...I might have to use him in a painting sometime. Thanks for sharing as always, Judy!
