his male Greater Roadrunner has captured a Spiny Lizard that he’s about to share it with his girlfriend, waiting out of the frame. A Roadrunner carrying a lizard is no rare site. These sleek harpoons with legs are designed to deftly maneuver through spiny cacti and catch fast moving prey. They’re able to snatch rattlesnakes and scorpions with impunity, bash them against the ground and devour them whole. The Roadrunner is like a small Velociraptor. They were present in all lowland Sonora habitats that I visited. Even when I couldn’t see them, I constantly heard them. They make different cooing sounds, and also an interesting bill rattle sound, which is a high frequency clicking.
