A roadrunner that traveled undetected from Nevada to Maine in a moving van is back in its home state.
一隻從內華達州搭搬家貨車到緬因州遊覽沒被發現的走鵑，正回到牠的故鄉。
The wayward bird flew in a pet carrier from Boston to Las Vegas last week. From there, it was delivered to officials with the Nevada Department of Wildlife, according to Avian Haven, a nonprofit bird rehabilitation center in Freedom.
這隻任性的鳥兒上週進寵物運輸籠由波士頓飛往拉斯維加斯。根據位在弗雷登鎮的非營利鳥類復建中心「鳥禽天堂」說法，牠從那邊被交到內華達野生生物部的官員手中。
“The roadrunner bolted from the carrier and disappeared into his old neighborhood,” Avian Haven said.
「鳥禽天堂」說，「這隻走鵑從籠子逃跑，消失在牠過去的棲地附近。」
All told, the bird covered more than 5,000 miles. It traveled east in a moving van that covered 2,800 miles before returning to Nevada on a Delta Air Lines flight on Nov. 23. （AP）
這隻鳥的行程範圍總計超過5000英哩。在11月23日搭達美航空班機返回內華達州以前，牠搭搬家貨車東遊範圍涵蓋2800英里。
