EDIT: Monday Frontpage! Thank you very much, my dudes! Be awesome to each other! I do reviews as a hobby, and this week I checked "The Invite"! Is it as good as people are saying? You can see it here: https://youtu.be/NQOn2IF-e9I

I live in NM the land of road runners, and that does not look anything like our roadrunners

There's a video about how it all ends. NSFW. Not safe more most people, be advised : https://youtu.be/5azkeDtPMFU?t=46 and you don't have to watch the first part. Just. Be advised.

It is a roadrunner only to the degree that it is running on a road.

Coyotes can run faster then a roadrunner

It's not even close. Coyotes run around twice as fast.

I get them little boogers in my yard. They'll chase my husband's car down the driveway when he gets home sometimes.

Also is that even a roadrunner? That doesn't look like any we have around here.

I think it's a juvenile. Also you can't see the black & white plumage well from this angle but it's definitely a road runner

It's a road-runner, but it's not a roadrunner. I think it's some sort of bustard.

My brain is saying a thick-knee.

That could be it. I'm mostly familiar with birds in the US and Canada. I definitely recognize it, whatever it is, but I was and still am drawing a blank on it.

It could be an upland sandpiper

That’s not an upland sandpiper. They don’t have the giant yellow eye and aren’t particularly tame.

1 month ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

No, that's a species I'm quite familiar with.

It beep beep bro… it’s a roadrunner

Are you sure? That seems to have very distinct breast streaking and a bright white stripe through the cheek, neither of which I'm seeing on this bird, although I'm unfamiliar with the various plumages of this species. I was thinking Peruvian thick-knee maybe.

Perhaps it’s an Indian Stone curlew? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indian_stone-curlew

1 month ago | Likes 4 Dislikes 0

I think that has the same plumage problems. I do agree that's the correct family though, which is why I suggested the Peruvian thick-knee, which has no breast streaking or bright cheek stripe. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peruvian_thick-knee

Bush stone curlew? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bush_stone-curlew

The video might just be AI slop though
