| Not a great shot -- but the large white spots on the tail and the yellow lower mandible are give-always! | |

 |
 |
| Greater Roadrunner - The personable roadrunner rarely flies (only under duress), but sprint up to 15 miles an hour! | This bird eats almost anything that moves (mice, spiders, lizards, small birds), and is especially noted for eating snakes (even the venomous ones). |

A friend of our told us about this nest,
about shoulder-high by the tee-box at the Palmer Golf Course here in The Woodlands. (Four babies in the nest - not running yet!) |
