The Roadrunners have been chasing our baby quails and when I looked out of the window and saw this I thought one had been caught. I took the shot through the window (which is why it is so bad) and then waited for the Roadrunner to finish up before going out to see what was left of the meal. Well the good news - it wasn't a baby quail, I think it was probably a fledgling House Finch, hard to tell as there were only a few feathers left.

They are such killers!
geeze. And I thought all they did was run fast and go beep beep!
Poor House Finch, but the Roadrunners have to eat. Neat sighting. I can not wait to see a Roadrunner.
Oh Celeste, sometimes it is hard to like the birds. This one reminds of a velociraptor! I j=know there is no morality or malice here but I am glad it wasn't a baby quail.
Can't help but love them though hey Chris? :)
Oh no Roberta, they are prodigious hunters!
They are very entertaining Eileen, I hope you get to see one soon :)
Exactly Kathie! They totally are dinosaurs! :)
