A bird that is quite common in the southeast does not have a video (gasp!) The Internet Bird Collection is a storing house for videos of birds all over the world. I view the videos quite often because not only does it aid in identification, but they are just plain fun to watch.
I was rather surprised to find that there were no videos on New Mexico’s state bird, the Greater Roadrunner. I have been in roadrunner country on three different trips and have seen them each time. On our most recent trip to Texas, I did not own a video camera (which I do now) but could have captured some great video as we had several roadrunners next to us on the side of the road.
If you have a video of a Greater Roadrunner, check out the Internet Bird Collection and see about adding it!
I wish that I had some video of roadrunners when I was growing up they were always by my house in Arizona, but not so much in the last few years its sad.
