An Air Force reunion took us to Alburquerque, NM in early May. On Sunday morning I made a trip down to Bosque Del Apache NWR just south of Soccoro, NM. The first bird I photographed was a Greater Roadrunner. I watched him down a "Seasonal Road", only open from April to September, near a viewing platform and then lost sight of him. He suddenly appeared on the rail around the viewing platform. As I watched him he continued shaking this small mouse in his beak. He made a sound like an owl, a low moan, "yea, yea, yea, yea". He then proceeded to show it off to me turning right and left making sure that I got photos of him at each angle. After his photo shoot he jumped down on the ground and walked down the road crossing it in front of me still clutching the mouse in his beak. As he turned away from me stopped, tossed the mouse around head first into his mouth and gulped it down in one swallow. I later found him in a willow tree chasing bugs. What an amazing bird.
