That roadrunner totally freaked out the cats. I loved to watch him go into my flower beds and then he would freeze until an unsuspecting lizard moved nearby. Then he would pick up the lizard in his beak, toss it high in the air, and then open his beak and swallow it whole. There were a lot of coyotes that came by at night and one huge male came by our front door every morning. So I had the roadrunner and Wile E Coyote come by my house every day. I was living in cartoon land.
