Backstory
We had gone to Alamogordo, New Mexico for my sister’s funeral. We decided to stay at an RV park marked by giant cowboy boots and across the street from the world’s largest pistachio.
On a walk around the place, this Greater Roadrunner came prancing under the fence. He was content to let me take several pictures, so long as I kept my distance (which I was able to do thanks to my new-ish 300mm lens. He seemed almost a curious about me as I was about him until he finally decided there was nothing interesting to eat on this side of the fence and headed back into the desert.
