Great shot, Jeff! We rarely see one perched. Perhaps he was posing for you? #11515111

They're "born to run", for sure! Quite a catch, Jeff, not often do you see them sitting still and patiently waiting for a portrait. :) :) You must be a Roadrunner Whisperer! Super capture with great light, details and colors! #11518448
