Default Need roadrunner photos

Hi all,
I'm attempting to carve a roadrunner (bird) ((without Willey Cyote)) this coming weekend, but I'm not finding very many close-up color photos. Anyone tried carving this bird and know of a good website to find photos?

Thanks

Donna T

Thanks guys!
Actually, when I arrived at the bird-carving workshop, I found out that Wildfowl Carving had an article on carving a roadrunner recently. It had some awesome photos. My version turned out pretty good and it was a fun workshop with Bob Monroe in Wichita. I got it all finished except for painting the feet and mounting it. Got a chance to meet x-sailor, Bob, and renew friendships with several bird carvers from that neck of the woods. Sorry that I don't know how to post photos--yet, but perhaps I'll have time to figure it out soon and can post a picture.

Thanks again.
Donna T
