The purring, bowing of the head and rapid wagging tail are all part of courtship ritual. The male usually has an insect, leaf or twig in its bill that it offers to the female as well. When he jumps in the air and strikes the door, he's trying to hop onto what he thinks is the female's back. At first I thought this would be another roadrunner attacking its own reflection video, but the other actions convince me this is mating behavior. Thanks for posting it -- roadrunners are very cool birds!

I've had the same problem. I'll tell you how you can get rid of them.

Well, first you get this really big anvil. Then you find yourself this really high cliff that has a road at the the bottom. Then when..................

@tim12161974 That confirms it - this is courtship behavior. The male sometimes turns its back on the female, extends his wings upward, and then rapidly lowers them, creating a thumping or popping sound. He's not trying to fly, roadrunners rarely do that. Their flight is more of a controlled glide since their wings aren't strong enough for sustained flight. It would be interesting to see how much longer he continues this behavior before giving up. Youre lucky to witness it up close like this.

@tim12161974 I've been living among them in the SoCal desert for the past 5 years and read a lot of birding websites and books to figure out what their antics/sounds mean. They visit like clockwork, looking for a snack or just to see whats up (tapping on windows for attention). Last year I had a family of 6 (2 adults and 4 juveniles) but this year only 1 mating pair and no offspring (fingers crossed though). Theyre a top predator, naturally curious of people, and lots of fun to have around.
