I moved to Desert Hot Springs a few months ago. The Greater Roadrunner's are abundant in my neighborhood.
And they are FAST when they want to be..........Here is what I have been able to capture so far>

Funny.  Wearing a UF Gators shirt right now.   Did you take that pic in your yard?

No, it was in the street out in front of the house.

Do they actually say "Beep Beep" ?

I don't think I've ever seen one up close,  even in a Zoo.

I unwisely mixed LSD, MDMA and Robitussin DM at this show and had an out of body near death experience.  I don't recall any of the music from the middle of Bird Song in the 1st set until the Playin' Reprise pre-drums in the 2nd set.  When I came back to my body during Playin', I was lying prone on the concrete floor out in the hallway.  It dawned on me that I was in a really weird place if no one had  come and taken me away.  It took about 4-5 hours before I could even speak.  "Let me live a life free and easy"....surrrrre...

Hey Turts! We will look you up when it hits 115 degrees here & we go to the OC to cool off.

With some thorough research,  I may have answered my own question,  but also opened a pandora's box of new questions...

Thanks again for these, Dan. I had no idea that they had such colors!

a flock of roadrunners can be called a marathon or race.
