Road Runner

This 4 month-old road runner is being trained at the free flight (free run?)
program at the Arizona-Sonoran Desert Museum http://www.desertmuseum.org/.
He loves people and near the end of his training session, he darted out to
"mix" with the crowd. To the crowd's credit, not one person moved a muscle
and his trainer was able to lure him back ... with crickets.

You are most welcome. I watch them out my kitchen window, but have been
unable to get quality shots of them, well, because they're road runners -
which means they move like a ferret on meth whose tail is on fire. :-)
This little guy just exuded personality, though, and was under enough
control that I could at least focus on him.
