Feline and Nature Friday: Kat has a new Friend

Thanks Comedy Plus for hosting

Thanks LLB Gang for hosting


It might be Friday the 13th but it is for sure a lucky day here in 
KAT-ville.

Dearest Aunty HiC!!!!!!!

Guess what!?! I’ve made a new friend! He comes to visit me every morning.




Yep, Rodney is a roadrunner, and I think he’s  absolutely amazing! 




I’ve been doing a little research on my new friend, and according to Wikipedia:

Rodney Made a Video for Nature Friday



I’ve been doing a little research on my new friend, and according to Wikipedia:

 Rodney can maintain a speed of 20 mpg for long distances. 
He feeds mainly on small animals including insects, spiders (including black widows), tarantulas, scorpions, mice, small birds, and especially lizards and small snakes. Venomous serpents, including small rattlesnakes, are readily consumed. It kills prey by holding the victim in its bill and slamming it repeatedly against the ground. 🙀

I’m happy Rodney likes me, and doesn’t want to eat me! 😹

Oh my word Nephew...you are so very very lucky.
I have never EVER no NEVER seen a Roadrunner in my entire life.
Does he say Beep Beep when he comes calling?

Lovingly your Aunty HiC


I also have a special Christmas Flag for the backyard birds enjoyment. Feeders are full of a very tasty Holiday seed mixture
including dried meal worms...can you say YUMMY?
A Christmas Goose. Yep I have four bird feeders and a suet cage.
Of course when I tried to capture the birds they flew the coup!!

  9. How fun Kat. I've seen roadrunners once at the San Diego Zoo. They are indeed fast. And cute too.

    I love your bird feeders. We feed them here too. I can't believe all the hummingbirds we still have here.

    Thank you for joining the Feline Friday Blog Hop.

    Have a purrfect Feline Friday and weekend. My best to your wonderful Auntie. ♥

  10. love the new friend KAT... love the video, since I have never seen one either. I am glad he can't get to you, since me might body slam you. MOL.. you could always hire PUP as a bodyguard.. maybe a roadrunner will come to see the goose in birdtown.

  14. Rodney sure is a cool one Kat. No doubt he told his roadrunner pals that he made a new kitty friend.
