So amazing how it doesn't even care that you're there with the camera and I've seen so many videos where Roadrunner just hang out with people incredible
Their tails are just astonishing. Not just the length and shape, but the ways in which they are able to move them around. Fascinating and beautiful, the birds and the video.
Your night time roadrunner video is what made me first subscriber. These are by far my favorite birds. Whenever I see one in real life I go wild, which is all of about twice in 20 years.
I watched this video again, but I must have looked away from it the first time, because I never saw the young man before...petting the roadrunner. I'm jealous !! I want to pet one, too !!‼❤😁 This is an exceptional video "I love them"💞👌🏼✌Thank you!
We have had a pair (male stays year round, female comes back in early spring) of roadrunners on and around our property, for about 5 or 6 years now. The male "Rudy" lost a foot a couple of years ago so I began feeding him. He's very friendly and comes within a foot or so, but I would never think of touching him. The female "Rhonda" is still very skittish, but on cold or cloudy mornings (before lizards are out) she will announce herself with "brrt brrt brrt" so I'll put out raw hamburger bits and live mealworms. This is the first year I've seen both taking worms or hamburger in their beaks and head off to the cactus (where I assume their nest is). We're hoping to see babies!
When this was SINGLE, searching food only for itself. When became pregnent, too much work started. Built Nest, incubated, searched food for itself and five more. OMG, every creature must go through like this cycle. That is Nature.
It’s really cool that you can get this close to the nest and the mom doesn’t abandon the nest to protect herself. some birds do that...If the mom comes back to feed the babies and sees a human wondering by the nest or feels it’s not safe for her.... these animals defense is to just be still and wait for the threat to pass...and it’s amazing that the babies can pick up on the moms fear or caution and also do not move a muscle. Even in the middle of a meal and they hear movement they all just stop what they are doing...too cool
That's the first thing I noticed about roadrunners feeding their babies - regardless of any outside influence. They put their beaks with the food into the baby's mouths - and both hold perfectly still for several moments before the baby actually takes the food in. Entirely different from any other bird species out there!
Amazing video I was in ARIZONA from September 2023 to January 2024.During that period,daily my routine walk would be From Appleby to Veterans Oasis Park Chandler.I have taken more than 20 videos of Great Road Runners and saved all in my Google Photos.I also differs the comments made by some of the people in this episode that the Road Runners are really very friendly with the humans.At times I saw two or three Roadrunners in the veterans oasis park.This routine was going on for a while.After a while one Road Runner same Road Runner I think so was eagerly awaiting my arrival at the same spot.Wow What a lovely bird ❤😂🎉😢.So far I haven’t seen these birds with the chicks.But for the first time I saw this through your video Many Many Thanks
One more comment as my gratefulness & further encouragement (request?). Some viewer might say "edit a little here & there .." to truncate the whole length/duration. Personally, 1 hour of fascinating moment wouldn't need such a trouble. Occasionally scenes offer an inactive bird for a while. That's the point. They need rest. Those scenes could be seen in BBC or other documentaries. Here's a naturallife of roadrunner captured as truly as possible. I do appreciate that.
This is superrrrrrrrr amazing birds 🦅 video 👌🐥🦆 so glad I found this 🥳 I have enjoyed fully 🥰 these birds have so much different behaviors than other birds tho 🧐 so calm ! Thank you 🙏- from Tokyo 🎌
This is awesome.. I JUST found your videos on social media.. when I seen the RR vids, I came to look for a documentary on em. My FB is suspended or I would've said something. 😂 I love your videos bro!, keep up the great work.
We came across one roadrunner that was, apparently, picking up white snails and breaking them on a rock to eat the soft snail inside. Around the rock were many broken snails shells.
This is one of my most favorite birds. This is an outstanding vid. I especially enjoyed your amazing work. I like their X feet. Thank you very much for all your time, patience, and efforts that went into this loving work of art. It looks like the birds see you as a friend and allow you to film pretty close (Tio). AMAZING!
Never saw a documentary on road runners before. Very interesting. Wish you did some narration of what was going on or subtitles. You should also work on editing this a little bit making it shorter. Excellent work. You put a lot if time and work in this. Thank you😀
@@Jack-xh3mz I agree. That was one of the fastest hours ever. Its pretty evident what is happening in most scenes and narration doesn't feel necessary. It's a very charming little look at Roadrunner family life.
Majestic roadrunner astonishing introduction by closer and touching that wild bird are impressive well done my friend keep lighting up are daily life from your work of love I wish we can be friends through are channel thanks highly appreciate your hard work then I’ll see you at my home channel stay bless blissful w/ur lovely family and friends 🤝✌️❤️🌎
I live.in Texas, there is a pair that lives close to my house, Always on our road but they go running when we get too close. They always run into the bushes. Once one of them made it to my yard checking out under my small storage building. Love seeing them!! They stay year round. How did you get so close to them? GREAT VIDEO!!
Great footage. There are a few roadrunners that frequent my yard. They steal my lizards and have to chase them off cause they work on the ants. Funny how Mel Blanc nailed the character!
His previous plan didn't work..... resulting in a gigantic boulder falling on his head just before blowing himself up with Acme TNT. But he'll be back next week.
Fantastic and absolutely wonderful filming. A close up look at an interesting bird. I saw one literally running across the road when we were driving near Palm Springs.
I have a roadrunner that appears every morning and night wanting a few pieces of fresh raw meat. It is spoiled as it likes a high cut of steak sliced thinly. It clicks the beak and talks while sitting on the patio table. I said I have a roadrunner .... should say it has me.
What does that scene in which both a parent & a chick remain frozen, motionless, during feeding mean? That strange behavior is confirmed in other videos as well. What are they doing?!
@@TheDesertWhisperer an excellent analysis. Very likely. Parents hunt & bring home often bigger preys relative to the size of chick (mouth), & shove it a whole. A bizarre, but could be well-calculated, behavior. Thanks again for precious images!
I learned a lot about roadrunners with this video. Now I know why the one in my back yard hangs out by my hummingbird feeder. FYI your the roadrunner whisper to be able to pet them.
@@TheDesertWhisperer Oh ok. There was a species of road runner that I used to see in Africa many years ago that was like a mini quail. I did everything humanly possible to catch one to no avail. It always disappeared into thick grass before I had the chance to go after it. What surprised me each time was that it never flew; it would sprint off at lightening speed and disappear into the grass leaving me in its dust and miserable. Those things are fast!
22:52 Dad is about to feed one of the chick a tasty lizard when the mom runs in with a much larger lizard...way to steal the show, the dad leaves with his now upstaged catch. Then the mom proceeds to eat her pray herself without trying to feed it to one of the chicks 😂
There is a nesting pair of Roadrunners where my daughter lives out in the country. Beautiful birds. They eat snakes, scorpions, centipedes, lizards and just about anything that gets in their way.

I have two nesting outside my bedroom window. Can’t wait to see the babies hatch . The coolest birds ever .
So amazing how it doesn't even care that you're there with the camera and I've seen so many videos where Roadrunner just hang out with people incredible
Wow , this is absolutely amazing footage of the Road Runner. Seriously thank you for posting this
Glad you enjoyed it!
Both parents work as a perfect team, that's why they are a happy family.
I love to see them around my house.
Greetings from monterrey México.
I didn't know we had roadrunners in México! 😃 greetings from The Desert Whisperer!

I live in the northeast and thanks to you I was able to observe these beautiful birds, I am grateful, thank you
Thank you!!
No music no graphics. Just nature
I love them!! I saw my Roadrunner in Big Bend Nat. Park, way back in 1967. Adorable!! 💖💖
Me too!

Frozen( thawed) or recently live mice from pet store, not hamburger. According to roadrunner lecture here on TH-cam..
For proper vitamins for the babies it said.
Enjoyed your video immensely, no noisy musical background. You allowed the birds to tell their own story, and thank you.
Beautiful Roadrunners, my favorite bird. ♥️✌️🙏☮️✝️🐞🍀😁
This is fantastic, so much respect and love for nature and its creatures. That bird trust you.
When this was SINGLE, searching food only for itself. When became pregnent, too much work started. Built Nest, incubated, searched food for itself and five more. OMG, every creature must go through like this cycle. That is Nature.
Roadrunners and Cardinals are my favorite bird.
From Malta .Thanks for the video .Was great to watch. I love nature and the Mother Nature that created it.
Glad you enjoyed it!

Simply fantastic work. Your patience and rapport with your subjects is amazing!
Thank you very much!
This is what l see in my backyard sometimes & l just love it never see them with a Rattler but geckos wich l have quite a few. Amazing Bird .
Feeding young ones in the nest just after making more babies with the lady. So many thorns. Thank you for your patience.
beautiful birds ,nice sharing ,thanks ,have a good day
They are beautiful thanks for sharing
I believe one of those squirrels’s pups was brought in for breakfast earlier in the film. Great, great footage...Awesome
55:00 It's a mini-velociraptor subduing its prey. That long beak takes on a whole new meaning now.
I think they overdid the subduing a tad.
Proper tenderizing technique

Good to see they are still thriving and have withstood the use of the best products of the ACME Company.
It's amazing how they trust you! 🙂

Glad you enjoyed it! I also have IG where I post lots of content. pachucos_art.
A stunning footage unparalleled. Actors on stage, Action! Drone would improve even more your work. Thanks & good luck!
Thank you but I will never use I drone to find wildlife...
I love roadrunners! I have two I hatched as abandoned eggs and they are wild but visit daily!
I don't understand the little "grasping onto moms beak and sitting forever" concept... can you explain that behavior at all?
Great video! Thanks for sharing.
Great video. Thanks for sharing. ❤
thanks for sharing, it's an excellent video, it was a nice interaction with those birds
I see those in Tucson a lot and they are pretty awesome.
Wow there are a lot of bird
Well filmed. Thanks for sharing.
Glad you enjoyed it
This is what the velociraptor evolved into.
Que buen documental,es lo que anduve buscando durante mucho tiempo, gracias.

Legit terrifying predators for anything that fits down their throats.
Felicito éste documental, yá que éstas aves no son comunes de ver y sobretodo filmar.
Gracias!

Great work..amazing bird...i enjoy to watch this video..thanks for sharing....

The shot after the chick taking down the lizard it's a beast compared to its siblings lol.
Great footage. There are a few roadrunners that frequent my yard. They steal my lizards and have to chase them off cause they work on the ants. Funny how Mel Blanc nailed the character!
The coyote must be recuperating from a previous encounter with one of the roadrunners.
His previous plan didn't work..... resulting in a gigantic boulder falling on his head just before blowing himself up with Acme TNT. But he'll be back next week.
Wonderful video thank you for sharing
Glad you enjoyed it
Hey Pachuco, gracias brother. Hermoso video
Gracias!
Why this parents raise all their babies while others save only one.
And some of them eat them too lol I guess it happens when there's not enough food.
Very cool video
Excellent video.
Fantastic and absolutely wonderful filming. A close up look at an interesting bird. I saw one literally running across the road when we were driving near Palm Springs.
19:32 What does it have there, a baby squirrel, or something similar?
Yes, ground squirrel
Hermosa familia 😘 bendiciones 😍
Great video.
Excelente documento

You got my vote for president 🙏
I wish we had them on the east coast, but our roads are crowded enough.
My favourite birds
Beautiful ❤️
Thanks for post l enjoyed it
What bird? They is lovly. Thank you share
Amazing vedeo
So awesome
What does that scene in which both a parent & a chick remain frozen, motionless, during feeding mean? That strange behavior is confirmed in other videos as well. What are they doing?!
I assumed, from the first time I witnessed that, that it is to help the baby open it throat.
@@TheDesertWhisperer an excellent analysis. Very likely. Parents hunt & bring home often bigger preys relative to the size of chick (mouth), & shove it a whole. A bizarre, but could be well-calculated, behavior. Thanks again for precious images!
is a wild bird or a pet bird? how can it be tame
they were wild.
Has it always been normal that a roadrunner will let you pet it in the wild? or is that only since they've been spraying lithium on us from Planes?
Did all five of them survive?
yes, all 6 survived!
it's really amazing the size of prey the chicks can swallow!
Moral of the story: If you're a lizard, don't set up home near a roadrunners' nest with hungry chicks.
es en Ixmiquilpan?
The starving baby at 43:03 threw a tantrum!
Muy interesante 😃
A modern day velociraptor
ok OK! I'm Dead already? Stop Knocking the Brains out of MEee!! poor little Fuzzy squirrel🙏💕
I learned a lot about roadrunners with this video. Now I know why the one in my back yard hangs out by my hummingbird feeder. FYI your the roadrunner whisper to be able to pet them.
Not a documentary, just footage of the birds.
Such an important comment thank you so much for sharing
And yet over 650,000 people have watched "just footage of birds".
Holy smoke, a lizard that size, baby runner just swallowed the whole thing ....
My favourite birds in cartoon siries..hahaha

It's a miracle.
Some tiny dinosaurs
How do you know a male and female 🤔
Do these road runners fly?
Yes they can take short flights
@@TheDesertWhisperer Oh ok. There was a species of road runner that I used to see in Africa many years ago that was like a mini quail. I did everything humanly possible to catch one to no avail.

I'm sure this bird would taste just like chicken, damn I'm hungry now.
