Vulturine guineafowl

Geierperlhuhn
The vulturine guineafowl (Acryllium vulturinum) is the largest extant species of guineafowl. Systematically, it is only distantly related to other guineafowl genera. Its closest living relative, the white breasted guineafowl, Agelastes meleagrides inhabit primary forests in Central Africa. It is a member of the bird family Numididae, and is the only member of the genus Acryllium. It is a resident breeder in northeast Africa, from southern Ethiopia through Kenya and just into northern Tanzania.

Jetzt, das erste Bild und was ist es, ein Huhn.
Und wieder, so ein, aus der Familie der Perlhühner, Huhn habe ich noch nie gesehen.
Dieses Blau in Streifen ist schon klasse.
