Helmeted Guineafowl

 

The Helmeted Guineafowl is a large-bodied, small-headed, slaty-gray gamebird perfectly lined with rows of hundreds of white spots. 


The distinctive head sports a strange bone-like casque and naked warty facial skin, which is colored white, blue, or red depending on geographic location.



It is common throughout its range, and large flocks roam the savannas, digging for invertebrates and tubers.
