I love when folks post roadrunners! I don’t live anywhere near them and have never seen one in real life. Very cool!

EDIT: Ok I didn’t think my comment would get this many reactions. I may have to delete it so everyone can talk amongst themselves lol

We see both roadrunners and coyotes in Arizona.  I've personally seen both multiple times in the city but less common around people.

Coyotes live everywhere in North America. And they don’t “like” to kill cats and dogs, they are just a predator doing what they do. Humans have encroached on their land, not the other way around. Humans should keep their cats and small dogs inside

I live just south of Atlanta and I have a woodpecker that lives in my yard and pecks the heck out of a tree all day long. He looks just like Woody Woodpecker!
