On this next to last Sunday of the 2026 version of May, it was to the Wichita Bluff Nature Area I commuted to get myself some much-needed endorphins acquired from aerobic stimulation.
Due to an injury to my left hip, I have greatly curtailed my aerobically stimulating activities for a couple months. Or so it seems.
It has been a long while since I've experienced the Wichita Bluff Nature Area's lush greenery.
The photo documentation above is the view looking north from the summit of the Bluffs.
I had a couple wildlife encounters on the Wichita Bluffs today. Including the one you see photo documented below.
A Roadrunner suddenly appeared in front of me. And, instead of turning and running in the opposite direction, which is the Roadrunner norm, this Roadrunner kept running towards me, allowing me to take multiple photos.
Usually, Roadrunners have run too far away by the time I get my camera aimed at them.
This particular Roadrunner, when he got to me, got off the paved trail to run past me on the grass, stopping to pose for the photo you see above.
This was one totally unusual Roadrunner.
It is too soon to tell if today's bluff hiking has had a salubrious effect on my aching hip. I hope so. If that turns out to be the case, I foresee some frequent returns to the Wichita Bluff Nature Area in the coming days.
