Roadrunner Seeing Coyotes?

An extreme close-up of a Greater Roadrunner's head and upper neck fills the frame, its shaggy crest raised and a vivid patch of blue-and-red bare skin visible behind the eye. Brushed linework builds the dense, streaked plumage across the neck in warm ochre and cream, while the sharp curved bill and pale eye anchor the composition. The tight crop and intense gaze give the piece its title's suggestion of a bird startled by something unseen.
