| Greater Roadrunner - The personable roadrunner rarely flies (only under duress), but sprint up to 15 miles an hour! | This bird eats almost anything that moves (mice, spiders, lizards, small birds), and is especially noted for eating snakes (even the venomous ones). |

Actually a member of the cuckoo family, the Greater Roadrunner is shown under "ground birds" -- because it has a similarity to those birds. (The "lesser" roadrunner is found in Mexico and South America.) |
