As I was reading the article I couldn't help but hear the hauntingly beautiful song 'Shrike' by Hozier, that is thematically based around the same-named birds in the article.
"Dragging along // Following your form // Hung like the pelt of some prey you had worn // Remember me love when I'm reborn // As the shrike to your sharp // And glorious thorn"

The roadrunner video is impressive.
Totally different animals in any case. Roadrunners aren't passeriformes (not songbirds).
If only I had known about this species of bird when I was a kid. Call me immature but there is something ticklish about disguised vulgarity.
