[cobirds] Greater Roadrunner at Brush Hollow SWA northeast of Canon City


I found a Greater Roadrunner at Brush Hollow SWA about 12 miles northeast of Canon City this afternoon.  I had not checked this area for over a month and was checking the northwest area of the state lands which is now more accessible since CPW has finally implemented a restriction of 'no atv's', which have torn up the 2 tracks terribly.  The bird appeared to be a young bird and I had to slam on my brakes to keep it from becoming a hood ornament when it ran right in front of my car.  I have uploaded 2 photos of the Roadrunner onto my Birds and Nature blog and will add more tomorrow.

  Few other birds in this area:  2 W Kingbirds, 1 Lark Sparrow, 1 G B Heron, 2 D C Cormorants, 1 Black-chinned Hummer and 2 W Scrub Jays.
