Food is an important component of the mating
ritual for roadrunners.
Picture from Birding Information
Courtship behavior between roadrunners involve the male’s foot pursuit of the
female, with frequent rests. The male will tempt the female with a morsel such as a lizard or snake
dangling from its beak. If the female accepts the offered food, the pair will
probably mate. Often times roadrunners will mate for life.
